The world as it is has a lot of potential for improvement – many people feel frustrated that they have no power to change the way it is run. However, together we are all able to change the world – this article shows how we can make the world a better, fairer place in which to live.
Step 1: Setting up a World Parliament
The United Nations Security Council is where decisions with some of the greatest impact are made, and yet it is democratically deficient. Whilst all stages of government have some sort of parliamentary body, the highest level of governance – the UN – has none. We therefore need to change this by establishing a United Nations Parliamentary Assembly (UNPA) which would provide democratic representation of the people of the world.
Step 2: Encourage a Public Mind Shift
The formation of the UNPA could be part of the public mind shift that is already happening in the public around the world at the moment. We need to encourage more people to move to a higher level of thinking where they see themselves not just as individuals but also as citizens of the world.
Step 3: Develop a New Global Political Philosophy based upon Conflict Resolution
Once a public mind shift has taken place, we can begin to form a new global political philosophy. This will be a fresh way of thinking which has moved on from the adversarial philosophy of the past.
Step 4: Global Law-making
It is evident that international law today is just not sufficient for a truly global decision making – we therefore need to move beyond national sovereignty and replace it with global law.
Step 5: Transforming the System of Global Governance
We can then achieve a transformed system of global governance whereby we have a democratic system run by the people for the people. We can have a new form of democratic leadership by the people of the world, representing the voice of the people.
By following these steps, we could create a world where people have a true representative on a global level, which would certainly make the world a better place.
Go to The UNPA Club. The UNPA Club is for anyone frustrated with the way the world is being run and who want to see real change in the world. http://www.unpa-club.org has been created as a meeting place for members to support global campaigns, share ideas and contribute to making the world a better place to live. Together, we can work for the long term objective of transforming global governance, including the way global decisions are made.
