Book Synopsis Enhancing U.S. Leadership at the United Nations by :
Download or read book Enhancing U.S. Leadership at the United Nations written by and published by Council on Foreign Relations. This book was released on 2002 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enhanced American leadership at the United Nations serves the US interest and can also help strengthen the UN and the international system. This potential has been undermined, however, by several obstacles, some created by the United States (the withholding of treaty-obligated dues), and some that are inherent in the UN system (the regional group structure). This report suggests ways to build further support for democratization around the world, promote respect for human rights principles, and co-operate more fully in the war against terrorism. While it is critical of certain discrepancies within the UN system, the task force acknowledges that many UN programmes are both essential and effective. It seeks to build on these gains to promote sustainable democracy, a larger role for the United States, and more systematic co-operation between the United States and the European Union within the UN.

Book excerpt: This Discussion Paper presents the conclusions and recommendations from two round table discussions on the relationship between democratic governance and the achievement of development outcomes held in 2008 and 2011. At the first meeting, participants exchanged views and shared research findings on the complex linkages between democracy and development and how gains in development can contribute to democracy. This meeting also identified areas of policy development to improve multilateral action, particularly by the UN, in the critical areas of democracy building that can enhance sustainable development processes. The second meeting looked more specifically at the role of the UN in simultaneously promoting democracy and development agendas and, in particular, how normative, strategic and operational aspects of UN engagement can be developed to pursue these mutually reinforcing aims. Participants deliberated on the broader strategic issues of how the UN reconciles the political aspects of UN engagement in transitions to democracy and the more 'operational' aspects of UN engagement.

Book Synopsis Building States by : Eva-Maria Muschik
Download or read book Building States written by Eva-Maria Muschik and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2022-04-13 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Postwar multilateral cooperation is often viewed as an attempt to overcome the limitations of the nation-state system. However, in 1945, when the United Nations was founded, large parts of the world were still under imperial control. Building States investigates how the UN tried to manage the dissolution of European empires in the 1950s and 1960s—and helped transform the practice of international development and the meaning of state sovereignty in the process. Eva-Maria Muschik argues that the UN played a key role in the global proliferation and reinvention of the nation-state in the postwar era, as newly independent states came to rely on international assistance. Drawing on previously untapped primary sources, she traces how UN personnel—usually in close consultation with Western officials—sought to manage decolonization peacefully through international development assistance. Examining initiatives in Libya, Somaliland, Bolivia, the Congo, and New York, Muschik shows how the UN pioneered a new understanding and practice of state building, presented as a technical challenge for international experts rather than a political process. UN officials increasingly took on public-policy functions, despite the organization’s mandate not to interfere in the domestic affairs of its member states. These initiatives, Muschik suggests, had lasting effects on international development practice, peacekeeping, and post-conflict territorial administration. Casting new light on how international organizations became major players in the governance of developing countries, Building States has significant implications for the histories of decolonization, the Cold War, and international development.

Book Synopsis Modernizing the United Nations System by : John E. Trent
Download or read book Modernizing the United Nations System written by John E. Trent and published by Barbara Budrich. This book was released on 2007-06-20 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modernizing the United Nations system is necessary to deal with the anarchy of globalization. Significant institutional change means winners and losers in the game of power. To make the UN more competent it must have more authority, which means constraining sovereignty. Some states fear international organizations interfering in their affairs. Others want to maintain their power over parts of the UN. How can the UN system be modernized if governments are unwilling or unable to do so? This book contends that civil society must mobilize its capacities to bring a new will to national and international politics and oblige governments to act. Modernizing the United Nations System starts by demonstrating the need for institutional change at the UN and then shows how, both in the past and the present, leading individuals and non-governmental organizations, using their knowledge base and their organizational networks, have led the fight for international organizations. After a summary of major
