Law and Practice of the United Nations: Documents and Commentary
combines primary materials with expert commentary demonstrating the
interaction between law and practice in the UN organization, as
well as the possibilities and limitations of multilateral
institutions in general. Each chapter begins with a short
introductory essay describing how the documents that ensue
illustrate a set of legal, institutional, and political issues
relevant to the practice of diplomacy and the development of public
international law through the United Nations. Each chapter also
includes questions to guide discussion of the primary materials,
and a brief bibliography to facilitate further research on the
subject. This second edition addresses the most challenging issues
confronting the United Nations and the global community today, from
terrorism to climate change, from poverty to nuclear proliferation.
New features include hypothetical fact scenarios to test the
understanding of concepts in each chapter. This edition contains
expanded author commentary, while maintaining the focus on primary
materials. Such materials enable a realistic presentation of the
work of international diplomacy: the negotiation, interpretation
and application of such texts are an important part of what
actually takes place at the United Nations and other international
organizations. This work is ideal for courses on the United Nations
or International Organizations, taught in both law and
international relations programs.
