Particularist Universalism and the Contested Global Order: Global South Variations in UN Voting Patterns on the Russia–Ukraine War (2022–2025)

This paper examines how Global South states negotiate particularist universalism unevenly through UN voting patterns on the Russia–Ukraine war (2022–2025). Drawing on systematic analysis of UNGA resolutions ES-11/1 through ES-11/8 and official country statements, it demonstrates that divergent responses reflect neither Huntington's clash of civilisations nor simple multipolarity, but contested universalism. Original analytical contributions include three formal models: the Particularist Universalism Index (PUI), the Heterarchy Mapping Model (HMM), and the Normative Contestation Spectrum (NCS).

Abstract

This paper examines how Global South states negotiate particularist universalism unevenly through UN voting patterns on the Russia–Ukraine war (2022–2025). Drawing on systematic analysis of UNGA resolutions ES-11/1 through ES-11/8 and official country statements, it demonstrates that divergent responses reflect neither Huntington's clash of civilisations nor simple multipolarity, but contested universalism. Original analytical contributions include three formal models: the Particularist Universalism Index (PUI), the Heterarchy Mapping Model (HMM), and the Normative Contestation Spectrum (NCS).
