These two volumes include articles which examine the system, the structure, the function and the future of the United Nations.
Recenzijas
These two volumes are a significant contribution to the ongoing process of stock-taking of the United Nations and its performance began at the 50th anniversary of the agencys founding in 1995...there is much food for thought in the essays and those concerned with future reform of the UN would do well to heed the lessons offered by the contributors. Commonwealth Lawyers Association ...offers a broad spectrum of opinions and authors...this essay collection enables the reader get an in-depth insight into theory and practice of the UN, especially university lecturers and students will appreciate this volume.
