Short description:

Building on the success of the first edition, this volume offers a revised and updated analysis of the UN, and will be an essential point of reference for all those working on or in the organization.

Long description:
This Handbook provides in one volume an authoritative and independent treatment of the UN's seventy-year history, written by an international cast of more than 50 distinguished scholars, analysts, and practitioners. It provides a clear and penetrating examination of the UN's development since 1945 and the challenges and opportunities now facing the organization. It assesses the implications for the UN of rapid changes in the world - from technological
innovation to shifting foreign policy priorities - and the UN's future place in a changing multilateral landscape. Citations and additional readings contain a wealth of primary and secondary references to the history, politics, and law of the world organization. This key reference also contains appendices of the
UN Charter, the Statute of the International Court of Justice, and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

This Handbook will contribute to a better understanding of the United Nations, and serve the collective mission of those committed to ensuring that the peoples of the world are able to live, as is their birthright, in the larger freedom which the UN Charter promises to all.
