Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

From regional conflicts to areas of environmental degradation, the UN's success depends on the way in which three dilemmas are resolved: the tensions between sovereignty and the reality of its erosion, those between demands for global governance and the weakness of UN institutions (as well as the reluctance of states to commit), and those between the need for leadership and the diffusion of power. This book explores these dilemmas in the context of the UN's historical evolution, including its experience of peace-keeping, peace-making, and development sustainability. The authors also consider the roles of various participants in the UN system, from major powers (especially the United States), small and middle powers, coalitions, and non-governmental organizations, to the six secretaries-general. There is also an examination of the need for institutional reforms, and specific proposals for reform.

Contraportada:

Dilemmas in World Politics offers teachers and students of international relations a series of quality books on critical issues, trends, and regions in international politics.
