Helps in dealing with the anarchy of Globalization. After reviewing global change and the many proposals for UN reform, this book shows how international civil society may be the only force that can provide the momentum required to modernize an organization that is 50 years behind the times.

A simple introduction to the UN as an organization is not sufficient for the new generation. This primer aims to make readers understand the UN's historical, technological, political, and economic context in order to analyze its strengths and weaknesses in the light of proposals being made to create more workable global institutions.
