Abstract
This paper proposes an alternative security system in the international community. The U.S.-China trade war and the scrapping of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) treaty have intensified the global hegemonic war. The international community faced a transition order, promoting the emergence of a new multi-polar system. As a result, security concerns in each country were increased, especially a new arms race for nuclear power began, and the nuclear deterrence regime is collapsing. A new security dilemma is about to emerge. Since the treaty on nuclear weapons has been scrapped, armed war is worth considering. In the transition period, a new order should be prepared to replace the INF treaty and realigning a perspective of international politics. The research adopted a qualitative approach
such that the data is retrieved through journal articles, monographs, and reports. This research analyzed the limitation of the existing security system through papers and empirical evidence. This paper suggests the peace building process through the ASEAN Regional Security Forum (ARF). The forum covers Asia, Europe, and America, and it is the only multilateral security consultative group in which North Korea participates. By expanding ARF, unilateral diplomacy based on each countrys interests can be prevented; moreover, ARF can establish an alternative security system that neutralizing hegemonic war. Ultimately, ARF should connect the Nuclear Weapon Free Zone on each continent by establishing Free Zone in Northeast Asia. Focusing on the value and role of ARF, the current study provided a new aspect of accessing international peace security and rendered valuable suggestions for policy-makers.
