The international order will face increasing challenges over the coming decades, including climate change, management of maritime territorial disputes, resource competition, new conventional arms technologies, cyberweapons, and human rights abuses. However, the current order is inadequate for meeting these challenges. The growing disconnect between the intent and consequence of the order calls for greater multilateralism and transformation. Within this framework, middle powers are best positioned to promote a multilateral pivot. Albeit divergent in interests and perspectives, middle powers can help reform and strengthen global structures by virtue of their special interest in a healthy and rule-based international order.
