Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: This paper explores the complex relationship between the United Nations and the United States under the two Bush Administrations. The key point of comparison is the role of the United Nations in each Bush’s war against Iraq. It pays particular concern both to the perceived legality of each military operation as well as the political relationship each President had with the world body. From this point the paper will expand to examine the role of the US in UN peacekeeping, in the creation of the international criminal tribunals, in environmental protection and sustainable development, and the personal relationship each President had with the Secretary-General. The most significant variables which will explain the similarities and differences between the two Bush Administrations are the a) American Exceptionalism and what Edward Luck calls American Exemptionalism; b) the relative domestic attitudes of the American public toward the UN; c) the role of the United States as global hegemon as well as the leading “norms entrepreneur”, to use the words of John Ruggie; d) the different challenges the US and the UN faced in these two periods; e) the historical development of the UN and perceptions of its proper role in world affairs, with an eye toward the intervening Clinton Administration. It will conclude with some thoughts about the future of the relationship between the United Nations and the United States.
