Description

Explore the transformation of the United Nations during a pivotal moment in global history with this comprehensive second edition from Routledge. After the Cold War ended in 1990, the UN faced unprecedented opportunities and soaring international expectations, yet by its fiftieth anniversary in 1995, reality had set in differently. This book examines how peacekeeping operations became stretched across conflict zones like Bosnia and Somalia, whilst Iraq's defiance of arms control inspections tested institutional resolve. The author analyses the widening gap between wealthy and developing nations, the widespread recognition that UN reform was essential, and the political obstacles preventing meaningful change. Through rigorous analysis, this work reveals the fundamental limits to UN power and effectiveness in an increasingly complex world, making it essential reading for students, policymakers, and anyone seeking to understand international relations and global governance in the modern era.
