Challenges and Prospects for the Future of Multilateralism","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eComposed of original articles from academics and policy notes from practitioners, this book attempts to draw up the state of multilateralism through the UN model and identify potential ways to address its challenges and shortcomings. The contributors question the role of multilateralism, sometimes accused of being fragmented, inefficient and unrepresentative, and its impact on global governance, democracy, trade and investment, the environment, and human rights. Since most of the authors are not from the UN system, the content of the contributions provides an external and more neutral assessment of the UN’s ability to continue to function today as a serious actor within a global movement in favor of a renewed form of multilateralism.   Does the UN Model Still Work? Challenges and Prospects for the Future of Multilateralism is now available in paperback for individual customers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents   Acknowledgments IX   List of Figures and Tables X   Abbreviations XI   Notes on ContributorsV   Introduction      Part 1: Special Contribution   1 Post-Bipolar Challenges to Multilateralism    Bertrand Badie      Part 2: Global Governance, New Actors and Challenges  to Multilateralism   2 Is Classic Multilateralism Outdated?
