Journal Description: 155(639), Jan-Mar, 2025: p.137-152.Subject(s): United Nations (UN), Global security governance, Geopolitical and technological interests, UN Security Council, Chinese technology standards, Development-Oriented model, Global Development Initiative, Global Security Initiative, Global Civilization InitiativeSummary: China's strategic role in United Nations (UN) peacekeeping reflects its ambition to reshape global security governance while advancing its geopolitical and technological interests. As a major financial contributor and provider of peacekeepers, China leverages its position as a permanent member of the UN Security Council, with veto power, to enhance its soft power and shape international norms. By supplying technologies such as communication system, drones, and surveillance tools, China integrates its tech industry into peacekeeping operations, fostering reliance on Chinese technology standards. Its peacekeeping mandates prioritise state sovereignty, economic reconstruction, and minimal use of force, opposing interventionist measure such as sanctions. This development oriented model, emphasising civilian protection, demining, and infrastructure rebuilding, aligns with China's philosophy that poverty and underdevelopment drive instability. While initiative, the Global Security Initiative, and the Global Civilization Initiative expand China's influence and promote its vision of a 'Shared future for mankind', critics argue that these efforts may priorities Chinese interests over multilateral transparency. As global governance evolves, China's growing influence signals a potential shift in international dynamics.
