As the United Nations moves beyond its 50th anniversary into the millenium, it is faced with a global system fraught with political and economic tensions that can no longer be handled with models that defined the organization when it was founded in 1945. A vision for a restructuring of the United Nations, this volume offers an insider's look at how the UN can respond more effectively to the challenges of the future in an age of globalization. The authors provide valuable policy recommendations involving a combination of political, will, relevance and efficiency in the coming years. Analyzing the roles of major UN functions such as the General Assembly, the Trusteeship Council, the Security Council and the Secretariat, the authors call for decentralization of the UN's activities and for building stronger relationships with established regional instituions and with Bretton Woods institutions.
