Who Fails? The United Nations or Nation-States? Or Both Fail?

The subject of this article is based on the idea that our world has been going through an anachronistic process for more than thirty years. This anachro-nism arises from the contradictions between the nation-state and the democratic state of the global age. Two reasons for this dissonance are important: (1) the nation-states' commitment to their national interests and (2) American hegemony. Therefore, although the world has been living in a global age since the 1990s, many institutions, especially the nation-states and the United Nations, have not been transformed yet from the international system to the global system features. In addition to this fundamental transformation problem, the world is facing global problems in the fields of social, economic, and security. I define all of these problems as ‘integrated threats.’ Likewise, I argue that the elimination of this threat can be solved by ‘integrated responsi-bility’ accepted by all states. This article explains why we are compelled to structural transformation, and the concepts of integrated threat and integrated responsibility.
