Explore the critical questions surrounding global governance with 'Would the World Be Better Without the UN?'. This thought-provoking book by Thomas G. Weiss delves into the complexities of the United Nations, the foremost intergovernmental organization in today's world. Discover the essential roles the UN plays in international peace and security, human rights, and sustainable development. Weiss meticulously examines both the successes and the drawbacks of multilateral cooperation, urging readers to consider counterfactual scenarios that illuminate what the world might look like without the UN. As the dynamics of global politics evolve, particularly with the rise of inward-looking populism, this book makes a compelling case for the need to rejuvenate the UN rather than abandon it. With 240 pages of in-depth analysis, ‘Would the World Be Better Without the UN?’ is not just a book; it’s a necessary discourse for anyone interested in international relations, global governance, and the future of cooperative efforts to tackle pressing global challenges. Engage with Weiss’s insightful arguments and explore why strong multilateralism is more crucial than ever in combating issues such as climate change, pandemics, and security threats.

Description:
Do we need the United Nations?  Where would the contemporary world be without its largest intergovernmental organization? And where could it be had the UN™s member states and staff performed better?These fundamental questions are explored by the leading analyst of UN history and politics, Thomas G. Weiss, in this hard-hitting, authoritative book. While counterfactuals are often dismissed as academic contrivances, they can serve to focus the mind; and here, Weiss uses them to ably demonstrate the pluses and minuses of multilateral cooperation.  He is not shy about UN achievements and failures drawn from its ideas and operations in its three substantive pillars of activities: international peace and security; human rights and humanitarian action; and sustainable development But, he argues, the inward-looking and populist movements in electoral politics worldwide make robust multilateralism more not less compelling The selection of AntĂłnio Guterres as the ninth UN secretary-general should rekindle critical thinking about the potential for international cooperation. There is a desperate need to reinvigorate and update rather than jettison the United Nations in responding to threats from climate change to pandemics, from proliferation to terrorism. Weiss tells you why and how.

Soft blanket!
Color: Juicy Words Hot Pink, Size: 50"x70"
Such a pretty blanket and super soft! The packaging was also super pretty and the blanket looks super nice on top of my black comforter. It's not super thick but I didn't expect it to be since it's just a throw blanket.

Gorgeous!
Color: Crown Script, Size: 50"x70"
I absolutely love this blanket! It’s of a perfect thickness - not so thick that you get really hot but it’s not too thin either so it’s definitely not cheap looking. It’s just right. The color pink is perfect, too. It’s that beautiful, pale, pale pink that’s so soft and attractive looking. And it’s super, super cuddly soft! Perfect for snuggling up with. I love the design, too. It has black crowns everywhere, all over the blanket, and gray polkadots in the background and then “Juicy Couture” written in black cursive all over it as well. I actually bought this for my granddaughter for Christmas because she loves Juicy Couture. I just know she is going to adore this blanket. So happy with my purchase! Definitely worth the price.
