The United Nations in Southeast Asia and the South Pacific (Macmillan International Political Economy S.) - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

This study of the United Nations in Southeast Asia and the South Pacific evaluates the organization's role and performance in Cambodia, with regard to human rights, development, the environment and the needs of women. These cases illustrate how multilateral conduct through the United Nations provides a barometer indicating the intensity with which policy initiatives and values are sustained by relevant governmental interests alike. In the regional settings considered, conduct towards and within the UN has amplified unresolved value differences regarding relations with major powers, sustainability, and national identity.
