Helps in dealing with the anarchy of Globalization. After reviewing global change and the many proposals for UN reform, this book shows how international civil society may be the only force that can provide the momentum required to modernize an organization that is 50 years behind the times.
This book contends that civil society must mobilize its capacities to bring a new will to national and international politics and oblige governments to act. It starts by demonstrating the need for institutional change at the UN and then shows how, both in the past and the present, leading individuals and nongovernmental organizations, using their knowledge base and their organizational networks, have lead the fight for international organizations. After a summary of major UN reform proposals over the years, the book concludes by identifying leading global "reformers" and elaborating a detailed plan for a global reform movement to spearhead the modernization of the UN system.
