Since its inception in 1945, the United Nations has played an outsized role in the Arab world. One of the first missions it undertook ended with the partition of Palestine. Seven decades later, the Arab-Israeli conflict continues to hang over the General Assembly. More recent wars in the Arab world continue to plague the United Nations, which serves as mediator and punching bag for all sides of the political spectrum. This volume collects some of the finest intellectuals on the promise and problems of the United Nations. They offer wide-ranging treatments of the work of the United Nations, while accounting for the geo-political contradiction amongst member states. This is a landmark book and the first of its kind—a close and informed study of the United Nations in a tumultuous region of the world.
