Las Naciones Unidas y su objetivo de paz: una evaluación

Abstract

The study examined the United Nations through its various efforts and abilities to enthrone peace in the world. It adopted a developmental approach, bringing to light the UN’s early attempts at peace, through the Cold War years and up to contemporary times. Taking into cognizance why the UN was established in the first place, and bearing in mind a clear conceptual understanding of peace, the study reveals that the UN’s balance sheet with regard to this onerous responsibility is a mixed bag of admirable successes and colossal failures.
