The Gloss of Harmony focuses on agencies of the United Nations,
examining the paradox of entrusting relatively powerless and
underfunded organisations with the responsibility of tackling some
of the essential problems of our time. The book shows how
international organisations shape the world in often unexpected and
unpredictable ways. The authors of this collection look not only at
the official objectives and unintended consequences of
international governance but also at how international
organisations involve collective and individual actors in policy
making, absorb critique, attempt to neutralise political conflict
and create new political fields with local actors and national
governments. The Gloss of Harmony identifies the micro-social
processes and complexities within multilateral organisations which
have, up to now, been largely invisible. This book will have wide
appeal not only to students and academics in anthropology, business
studies and sociology but also to all practitioners concerned with
international governance.
