| Description: |
The contributions to this volume examine the economic influences on international politics and the role of the United Nations. Pursuing the theme of the dynamics of international cooperation, 13 authors look at the principal UN organs and their leading economic and social concerns. |
| Synopsis: |
The United Nations is in a time of major crisis in the history of the organization. The product of many leading scholars on both sides of the Atlantic, this work examines whether out of the crisis of mulitlateralism engulfing the organization in the late 1980s there could arise a renewed and strengthened global body. Pursuing the theme of the dynamics of international cooperation, thirteen authors look at three principal issue-areas: the principal UN organs, leading economic subjects, and leading social subjects. Two distinguished American scholars provide concluding commentaries. Running throughout the book is an emphasis on the economic dimension to international politics. |
