The UN is portrayed in this student text from its historical foundations to its expanding role in the post-Cold War arena. It looks at what the UN is, how it operates, and what its relationships are with external actors and institutions. The authors show how the UN has influenced norms and operations in three key areas - security, human rights, and sustainable development - and provide recommendations for improved UN performance in the future.
