Join The United Nations

聯合國會員國

一個國家擁有國家地位, 無論是基於《蒙特韋爾德公約》對國家的定義, 還是透過普遍的國際承認, 並不一定意味著它擁有成為聯合國會員國的資格。
例如, 巴以衝突和爭端尚未解決, 巴勒斯坦仍無法加入聯合國。

一個國家若要申請加入聯合國, 首先必須安全理事會中五個常任理事國皆無任何一個否決該申請案, 若有則該申請案將不會獲得進入安全理會表決議程, 然後於表決中還必須得到聯合國安理會15個成員國中至少9個成員國的核准(≧3/5)才能安排成為大會表決議案。
當然, 此申請案最後尚須穫得聯合國大會≧2/3多數票的支持才能加入聯合國。

Join The United Nations

A country's possession of statehood, whether based on the Monteverde Convention's definition of a state or through universal international recognition, does not necessarily mean that it qualifies for membership in the United Nations. For example, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and disputes have not yet been resolved, and Palestine is still unable to join the United Nations.

A country's application to join the United Nations must be approved by at least 9 of the 15 member states of the United Nations Security Council.

If any of the five permanent members veto the application, the application will not be approved. Of course, this case also requires the support of a 2/3 majority of the United Nations General Assembly.

The Galactic Ethics

Please answer the following hypothetical questions:
What if Earth is like one of those uncontacted tribes in South America, like the whole Galaxy knows we're here but they've agreed not to contact us until we figure it out for ourselves?

ChatGPT Said:

That's an intriguing thought! If Earth were like one of those uncontacted tribes, with the entire galaxy aware of us but choosing not to interfere, it would imply a few fascinating things:

Galactic Ethics or Laws: There could be a form of galactic "Prime Directive" (like in Star Trek), where advanced civilizations have agreed not to interfere with developing species until they reach a certain level of technological, cultural, or ethical maturity. The idea would be to let humanity evolve naturally without outside influence, just as we try to protect isolated tribes from the disruptive effects of modern society.
Observation Without Interference: Advanced civilizations might be observing us, like anthropologists studying a remote tribe from afar, gathering data on how we handle challenges like technology, environmental crises, and global conflicts. Our radio waves and space exploration could be signals they're monitoring to track our progress.
Technological Hurdles: The galaxy might have certain milestones that species must reach on their own before being deemed "ready" for contact—like mastering interstellar travel, artificial intelligence, or solving fundamental social problems. Perhaps there’s a belief that premature contact could stifle our growth or cause chaos.
Tests of Responsibility: The delay in contact might be a test to see how we handle self-governance, peaceful coexistence, or even existential risks like climate change or nuclear weapons. If we fail to demonstrate responsibility, the galaxy might decide we’re not ready for greater participation.
Implications for Us: If this were the case, it would mean that everything we’ve done so far—the wars, scientific discoveries, environmental destruction, and cultural achievements—are all part of a natural experiment. And the decision to initiate contact may depend on how we resolve or overcome our biggest challenges.

In this scenario, it would be possible that only once we've proven our ability to sustain a peaceful, advanced, and balanced society would we be invited into the larger galactic community. It’s a humbling and somewhat unnerving idea, but it also suggests that we’re not alone—just being watched carefully until we’re "Ready."
