Book Synopsis The United Nations at the Crossroads of Reform by : Wendell Chaffee Gordon
Book excerpt: A critical examination of institutionalism within the United Nations; specifically, the question of what actually occurs in the process of change or reform. The first ten chapters describe the operation of the UN as an institution in terms of the chief units or groups in the system. In the next four chapters, the substantive work of the UN is analyzed in terms of technology, institutions, environment and people categories of institutionalism. The final chapter presents a discussion of the nature of positive changes that are possible in the structure and functioning of the UN. Paper edition (unseen), $19.95.
