Summary

The United Nations (UN) aims at facilitating co-operation in international law, international security, economic development, and social equity. Hated by some, loved by others and an object of hope for most, the UN is still the only international political forum where almost all countries have a representative. This book presents current and important analyses of direct significance to the UN.
