THE BUREAUCRACY OF COLLAPSE

The United Nations is issuing new mandates. They call it peacekeeping. It is actually just a way to catalog the destruction of sovereignty. The institutions are just managing the paperwork of a dying world.

These mandates expand the scope of international intervention. They provide a legal mask for the interests of powerful nations. The text does not prevent war. It only provides a script for the theater of power.

The features of this expansion are grim.

• The formalization of failed states.
• The use of humanitarian language to mask military interests.
• The creation of legal loopholes for proxy warfare.
• The systematic documentation of human misery.
