Positivist Grounds?

By arguing for the establishment of some global governing body, doesn't Young fall victim to her own criticism of our moral responsibilities to one another being based purely around a positivist outlook, thus actually "robbing" the responsibilities of any actual moral application, and designating them purely as a matter of obligatory policy to the governing body's regulation of all who exist within it?
