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.
