The United Nations

Paper Summary:

This paper will develop these ideas further. As indicated in the description, it will account for the formation of the United Nations. What were its objectives? Why was it formed? Who were the masterminds behind the plan? And so on. More importantly, it will critically analyze whether or not the U.N. has made a successful go of its objectives. Has it fulfilled its objectives? Is the world a better place because of the U.N.? Can the U.N. help to keep world peace? In the final analysis, the overriding conclusion is that the U.N. has been a succes, and will continue to be. We must bear in mind that the international community operates in a state of constant anarchy. The U.N., along with the numerous regional trade/economic/political blocs that have formed in its wake, are the only actors on the international scene that can police the behaviour of states. Considering the complexity, if not impossibility of this task, it must be said that the U.N. has probably exceeded its original expectations.
