Based on his experience as a diplomat and as political advisor to the U.S. mission to the United Nations, Jackson traces the history and development of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), and shows it to be a Third World interest group with a fundamental impact on the structure and agenda of the United Nations. As such he views its mistrust of the West as stemming from an anti-colonial bias rather than from an inherent disposition to either East or West. He argues that the survival of the NAM in its present anti-Western mode can only be viewed as a failure of U.S. policy over the last two decades. He believes that U.S. withdrawal from the United Nations would increase global instability and supports ending direct attacks on the NAM. ISBN 0-03-062561-0 (pbk.) : $29.95.

The aim of this study is not to explore all of the problems that arise today in security threats and conflict management, but to seek to understand the role of a particular institution--the Security Council--and the changes now affecting its modes of intervention and its interaction with international actors--great powers, regional organizations, non-state actors.
