From the UN Security Council and the European Union's Council of
Ministers to obscure committees on food labelling or the scheduling
of World Fairs, several thousand multilateral conferences are held
each year. Why do governments deploy so much effort in these
activities? What goes on behind the scenes at these meetings? How
are their outcomes determined and what are the real-world
consequences? Ronald A. Walker reveals the inner workings of such
conferences, the result-oriented strategies that are pursued behind
a facade of formal ritual and their impact on the behavior of
sovereign states.
