Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: The advent of US global supremacy has resulted in the establishment of a unipolar global security (UGS) framework to define and implement global security measures. Since 1990, the US has unilaterally formulated and managed systemic security policy. This practice fundamentally differs from the previous bi-polar, Cold War framework of world politics, wherein US power was balanced by the USSR. This study therefore seeks to expound upon UGS as concept and practice in a post-Cold War, post-9/11 world by probing the following questions: How is post-Cold War, post-9/11 global security defined, and has it eclipsed previous notions of security based upon a system of states? If US security is the basis for global security, what are the effects on the structure, organization, and management of world affairs?The US engages in UGS, which elevates its national security interests to a global level. Consequently, global security is effectuated via a discrete set of US values/interests, finding empirical expression in the concepts of rogue states and hostile non-state actors. These actors therefore provide test cases to clarify the breadth, depth, and consequentialness of UGS in world affairs. UGS in theory and practice merits analysis because it forms the singular, ubiquitous conceptual basis of global securitization measures. In the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks, US foreign policy has placed a preemptive, offensive, military-based global security policy at the forefront of its agenda. This modality of securitization has profound consequences for the conceptualization, organization, implementation and management of world affairs.
