  2. 17. Influencing the United Nations Security Council - the role of representative legitimacy : A qualitative comparison of elected members' influence in decisions made on the Syrian Conflict

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskning

    Author : Johan Lundin; [2020]
    Keywords : United Nations Security Council; Decision making; Elected members; Legitimacy; Syria;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the topic of elected members of the United Nations Security Council by addressing the research question under what conditions is an elected member of the United Nations Security Council likely to influence decisions in maintaining international peace and security? In investigating the explanatory power of the theoretical argument ‘representative legitimacy’, which suggests that elected members making their proposed actions legitimate by anchoring these with the broader UN membership are more likely to face less opposition and thus increase the likelihood for influence, it tests the hypothesis an elected member anchoring its proposed actions with the broader UN membership is more likely to influence the UNSC decisions. The study is conducted through a structured, focused comparison of three elected members, New Zealand 2015-2016, Japan 2016-2017, and Sweden 2017-2018, and their influence in decisions made on the Syrian conflict.

  3. 18. Participation vs Protection : A quantitative content analysis of ‘Women, Peace and Security’ in the Swedish statements in the United Nations Security Council 2017-2018

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Sara Nuder; [2019]
    Keywords : UN Security Council; Resolution 1325; ‘Women; Peace Security’; WPS-agenda; Swedish Feminist Foreign Policy;

    Abstract : This paper takes its point of departure in the skewed attention towards the ‘protection’ of women rather than the ‘participation’ of women when talking about ‘Women, Peace &Security’ (WPS) in the UN Security Council. Given the centrality of Sweden, as the first country in the world with a feminist foreign policy, this thesis fills a gap in the current research as it investigates whether this skewed attention was reflected during Sweden’s time as a non-permanent member in the UNSC 2017-2018 or not.
