How did the US shape the composition of the UN Security Council during the early Cold War period? By focusing on the election of non-permanent members to Council seats, this paper investigates what role the US played in the nomination and election of candidate countries. In doing so, the study relies heavily on US diplomatic archives since those archival materials are rich in terms of voting preferences of UN members, negotiations between the US and its allies, and Washington's intensive lobbying for candidates. Investigating contested elections from 1946 to 1964, we find that although the US had an extensive influence on determining Council's non-permanent members, its power to influence election outcomes dramatically weakened from the late 1950s onwards. This finding has important implications for the recent literature on the UN Security Council.

控制国际机构:美国如何在冷战初期设计联合国安理会非常任理事国

冷战初期,美国是如何塑造联合国安理会的组成的?本文通过关注安理会非常任理事国席位的选举,考察了美国在候选国的提名和选举中所起的作用。在这样做的过程中,这项研究在很大程度上依赖于美国的外交档案,因为这些档案材料在联合国成员国的投票偏好、美国与其盟国之间的谈判以及华盛顿对候选人的密集游说方面都非常丰富。调查从 1946 年到 1964 年有争议的选举,我们发现,尽管美国在决定安理会非常任理事国方面具有广泛的影响力,但其影响选举结果的能力从 1950 年代后期开始急剧减弱。
