The United Nations System

by Chadwick F Alger, Gene Martin Lyons, and John E. Trent

Published December 1995

The essays in this volume provide a comparative study of national policies towards the United Nations. Eight cases have been selected: Algeria, Canada, France, Japan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Each case study details a government's historical position on the United Nations, its past, present, and possible future expectations of the organization, and UN-related issues of special interest and the circumstances behind them.
