About the product

Since the ability of the United Nations to resolve conflicts depends upon the support of Member States, it is imperative to know what States expect from the world body. As a result, this book explores the following questions: What are the security perspectives of the Member States and especially of the major powers? What kinds of visions do States have of the United Nations in the field of security? How can the United Nations minimize the volatility and reluctance of Member States to give their support in the field of security? How is it possible to organize and secure a real and effective partnership between the United Nations and member States regarding conflict prevention and conflict management? At a time when security issues are changing and becoming more complex, this book will be useful both for students and practitioners in the field of international affairs.
