Throughout the Second World War, a wide range of people, including
political leaders and government officials, experts and armchair
internationalists, civil society groups and private citizens talked
about and formulated plans to ensure national security and to
promote individual well-being in the postwar world. Rebuilding the
Postwar Order explains how civil society and governments of the
wartime allies conceived of peace and traces the international
negotiations and conferences that later resulted in the United
Nations system. It adopts a multilateral approach, connects wartime
ideas to earlier peacemaking efforts, and reveals support for, as
well as resistance and alternatives to, the emerging postwar order.
In chapters on the United Nations, UNRRA, the IMF, World Bank and
GATT, the FAO and WHO, UNESCO, and human rights, McKenzie explores
the tensions between national sovereignty and international
responsibility, national security and individual well-being,
principles and compromises, morality and power, privilege and
justice, all of which influenced the UN system.
