| Synopsis: |
This text provides a pioneering and comprehensive analysis of over one hundred international organizations.

Each organization is analysed in a stand-alone section that considers its origins, basic mandates and evolution, the governance structure and the associated key players, current activities and future challenges. The descriptions also reflect each organization's broader relationships with other international bodies.Some of the organizations covered include:* The United Nations plus its system of semi-autonomous and Specialized Agencies* The European Union and other regional organizations* The development banks, international financial institutions and other international economic organizations* The international scientific, transport, communications and agricultural organizations.This detailed textbook will serve as an essential companion volume supplementing core texts on undergraduate modules where international organizations have a prominent role. |
