World Security Plan in Brief
The British Russian American Chinese proposal outlines a permanent United Nations style framework. A eleven member security council with Big Four seats and a future French seat would decide when peace is menaced and what force to use. It envisions a general assembly, an economic and social council, an international court, a permanent secretariat, and a military state committee to plan force. Immediate contingents would be available if peaceful methods fail.
