Weltinnenpolitik und Vereinte Nationen – eine Symbiose?

The term Weltinnenpolitik was coined by Carl Friedrich von Weizsäcker. In contrast to the more famous concept of global governance, Weltinnenpolitik tries to simulate a global state - especially the monopoly of the use of force - as far as possible under the condition of a vital community of states. It is based on two pillars of equal relevance: a perspective similar to the one of domestic politics and an international organization that behaves towards its member states in a domestic manner. Despite the recent crisis, the United Nations are the best place for both.
