Page Background

As the twenty-first century marches on, the global community

is confronted with a number of complex issues, including

climate change, poverty, epidemics, and terrorism. Despite

its imperfections, the United Nations remains the primary

international organization for addressing these challenges. The

United Nations: Leadership and Challenges in a Global World

explores the history, structure, and activities of this most

vital institution. The series will help students understand the

problems the organization

faces—such as international

discord and its own complex

bureaucracy—as well as

the UN’s promise of global

solidarity and security.
