Alter-Globalization

Strongly agree

Yes

Alter-globalization advocates for a more equitable global governance system, emphasizing the importance of international cooperation and solidarity. The United Nations, despite its flaws, represents a global forum where these ideals can be pursued. Historical movements aligned with alter-globalization, such as those protesting the WTO meetings in Seattle in 1999, have not opposed international institutions per se but have criticized their policies and called for reform to make them more democratic and responsive to the needs of all people, not just the interests of powerful nations and corporations.

Agree

Yes, but scale back our current involvement

This position might be somewhat agreeable to alter-globalization proponents as it suggests a critique of the current state of U.S. involvement in global governance, potentially implying that the U.S. exerts too much control or influence. Alter-globalization activists often call for a rebalancing of power within international institutions to ensure a fairer representation of all nations. However, the idea of scaling back could be seen as a retreat from international responsibilities rather than a push for the kind of systemic reform they advocate.

Disagree

Yes, and use the U.N. peacekeeping forces to protect our interests

While alter-globalization advocates support the idea of peacekeeping and protecting human rights, the notion of using U.N. peacekeeping forces to protect U.S. interests specifically could be seen as perpetuating a form of neo-imperialism or prioritizing the interests of one nation over the collective good. The movement generally calls for the reform of international institutions to ensure they serve global interests rather than those of individual powerful nations. This answer implies a continuation of using international mechanisms for national gain, which would be at odds with the ethos of alter-globalization.

Very strongly disagree

No

Leaving the United Nations would be antithetical to the alter-globalization movement's core principles of global solidarity, cooperation, and the pursuit of justice through international frameworks. Alter-globalization seeks to transform global institutions to work for the many, not to abandon them. The movement has historically been critical of unilateral actions by powerful nations that undermine collective efforts to address global challenges.

Very strongly disagree

No, and remove the U.N. headquarters from the U.S.

This position would be strongly opposed by the alter-globalization movement as it represents a rejection of internationalism and a move towards isolationism and unilateralism. The presence of the U.N. headquarters in the U.S. is seen as an opportunity for the country to play a leading role in fostering global cooperation and peace, albeit in a more equitable and just manner than critics, including alter-globalization activists, perceive it has done in the past.
