Does the UN Model Still Work? Challenges and Prospects for the Future of Multilateralism de Kim Fontaine-Skronski

Does the UN Model Still Work? Challenges and Prospects for the Future of Multilateralism

Kim Fontaine-Skronski, Valeriane Thool, Norbert Eschborn
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 sep 2023
Composed of original articles from academics and policy notes from practitioners, this book attempts to draw up the state of multilateralism through the UN model and identify potential ways to address its challenges and shortcomings. The contributors question the role of multilateralism, sometimes accused of being fragmented, inefficient and unrepresentative, and its impact on global governance, democracy, trade and investment, the environment, and human rights. Since most of the authors are not from the UN system, the content of the contributions provides an external and more neutral assessment of the UN’s ability to continue to function today as a serious actor within a global movement in favor of a renewed form of multilateralism.

Does the UN Model Still Work? Challenges and Prospects for the Future of Multilateralism is now available in paperback for individual customers.
