Description: "It is fitting that this volume of the "International Organizations Series" be devoted to the UN on its 50th anniversary. Baratta, a historian of international organizations, presents a comprehensive overview of the English-language literature devoted to the UN system. As the title implies, the work covers both the UN as an organization and the broad issues any nonprofit international organization must deal with (e.g., global armed conflicts, refugees, health issues)... Of use to anyone looking for an introduction to the scholarly literature on the UN and international relations, and a useful addition to any reference collection." --D. Lee, Choice
