According
to the article “Runaway Globalization Without Governance” by
Nayan Chandra, it can be learnt that from a long time ago,
communities have been connected with each other, but unfortunately
regulations regarding this connection have failed to follow it.
Empires and faith were good tools for the creation of rules, but as a
result of growing transportation and communication technology,
globalization has reached higher levels faster than the protocols
governing it. There are three serious challenges as a result of the
lack of order : sovereignty and security problems, spread of nuclear
weapons, and climate change. In spite of these challenges, nations
are hesitant to face them together. USA's constant rejection to
regulations controlling these issues seriously hinders the world's
fight against these dilemmas.
Despite
the constant worry of the danger of nuclear weapons, they are a
strong tool to control the world. Power has always been a perfect
instrument of control as it is able to subjugate people with fear and
thus forces them to obey. It is an out of date method, and perhaps a
little barbaric, but this seems to apply for the world as well.
Power
is represented by the possession of nuclear weaponry. Countries all
over the world have been trying to get their hands on this dangerous
weapon to be able to hold their ground in case a war happens.
Multiple nations possess these deadly tools and they are considered
dangerous threats to the global world. Ironically, as countries are
perfectly aware of the dangers of a nuclear bomb exploding in their
territories, they become docile. No one dares to be out of control
and wreak havoc because nuclear weapons can be used to bombard them
anytime. The world is in a delicate balance because of this weapon.
Therefore, nuclear weapons are ideal to keep the world in check.
