Many have proclaimed the fundamentals of global security were
altered by the September 11 terrorist attacks. Do these changes
undercut or enhance the role of the United Nations? What do events
like the role of the UN in the crisis over Iraq tell us? Here top
scholars examine the role of the UN in preventing international and
civil violence, arms control, deterring and reversing aggression,
and addressing humanitarian crises. The chapters are concise while
providing depth of understanding of the issues, positions and
problems facing the United Nations and its member states in
grappling with increased opportunities and threats. Their lively
presentations of the drama of UN debates establish the
contributions and shortcomings of global multilateralism in an era
of U.S. hegemony and unilateralism. University of British Columbia,
