Description:
The United Nations' role in Southeast Asia and the South Pacific is essential yet fragile. Renewed conflict in Cambodia prompts Roderic Alley to question the UN's role there. He also examines the UN's policy toward Southeast Asia's refugees and perceptions by governments in both the South Pacific and Southeast Asia toward peacekeeping and reform. This study evaluates the UN's attitude toward the environment, development, human rights and the advancement of women. Alley provides a timely evaluation of the UN in a setting where the imperatives of interdependence are demanding intergovernmental cooperation previously denied or neglected.
