While\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ein scientific literature, the normative concept of global governance has become\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eunfashionable by the time and a rather critical analysis of the implication of\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003einternational regulation has taken precedence, it will be outlined that there is good\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ereason to investigate the connection between the UN and the normative concept. By no\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003emeans does this foreclose the importance of critical scrutiny of the establishing\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003egovernance architecture. The criticism of global governance as the perpetuation of\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eneoliberal hegemony and Western domination is acknowledged but will not be dealt\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ewith from this point on. Surprisingly little effort been made so far to systematically link the concept of global\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003egovernance, be it normative or analytical, to the United Nations system although on a\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003egut level, scholars seem to agree that both are somehow linked. At the start of the\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eanalysis, this paper sets out to present a first useful framework put forth by Brühl and\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRosert (Brühl\/Rosert 2007) and adds a missing category to the analysis, the link\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ebetween the UN and the normative concept of global governance. In the normative\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003etradition, the developed framework inter alia proposes to consider the UN as a potential\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eactivator for global governance as a normative concept. While the connection of global\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003egovernance and the UN as its activator offers room for gripping research, the ambition\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eof this paper is much downgraded. It only seeks to offer a starting point by investigating\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ewhether the UN can actually advance global governance and tries to enable a first\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ecautious approach to the more general hypothesis above. To facilitate this analysis, in a first step a major problem of global governance is\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eselected. The fundamental lack of integration of non-state actors into governance\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003estructures serves as a case in point for that matter. The legitimacy of global governance\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003esuffers from this lack which in turn impedes reaping the desired benefits of the concept.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a second step, the UN¿s capacity to solve the depicted problem is analysed.
