United States Foreign Policy and the United Nations System

by Charles William Maynes, Richard S. Williamson

Overview

In the years since Cold-War hostilities have waned and the UN was revived as a central arena for international security, U.S. administrations have increasingly referred conflict situations to the Security Council and have looked to the UN to establish global policy on critical social and economic problems. More recently, however, the UN has become the subject of heated polemic within the United States. At a moment of intense political maneuvering in Washington, it is imperative for the U.S. to solidify its policy towards the United Nations. In this timely collaboration between The American Assembly and The United Nations Association, experts in government, economics, law, science, military, and labor explore the issues that must be resolved.
