Preserving the United Nations



When the United Nations first became a reality in 1945 following the
devastation wrought by World War II, the organization called for the
maintenance of peace, international security and respect for human
rights. If the United Nations is to uphold that noble mandate,
especially in its role as a global mediator of human rights, reforms
in its management structure are necessary.



The important new book Preserving the United Nations delineates the
foundational errors present in 1945, how these errors impact on the
organization's mission, and the remedies necessary to make the United
Nations work as it was intended.



"Splendid, thorough, balanced ... astonishingly accessible, informing
and inspiring. Theodore MacDonald writes with passion and sense. Much
of what he has to say is drawn from his own experience in several of
the world's poorest nations. Overarching that is a powerful insight
into global social and economic issues, along with his well-honed
skill as a communicator." - Desmond M. Tutu, Archbishop Emeritus,
Capetown, South Africa.
