Description: Born from the devastation of World War II, the United Nations remains humanity's boldest attempt to replace conquest with cooperation. This book traces its path from the ruins of 1945 through the drafting of the Charter, then takes readers inside the institutions that define it, from the power politics of the Security Council and its veto to the many voices of the General Assembly. It follows the Blue Helmets into the field and examines the vast network of agencies and funds that deliver aid around the world. With a clear-eyed look at the organization's crises, criticisms, and limits, it asks what this unfinished experiment in global order can still achieve.
