Abstract:

The main objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between the United Nations, the great international organization, and the United States, which is again defined as an important force within the system. Traditional approaches in the literature of international relations that study the relationship between the state/international organization defines organizations as tools that maximize the power or interests of the states. In this study, the mainstream approaches are criticized by the unilateral relationship they establish between the two stakeholders, often the government and the organization in particular, and the claim is a mutual relationship between the United States and the United Nations. The United Nations, which needs the United States to continue its existence and operations from the U.S. point of view, is an important tool in spreading this country’s hegemony. On the other hand, the United Nations, through the normative structure of the international system in which it is centered, has a restrictive effect on all actors within the international system, as well as on the U.S. foreign policy.
