Times Guide To World Organisations

EU, WTO, NATO, OSCE, UNPROFOR—the post–Cold War world is drowning in an alphabet soup of international organizations that proliferate in every sphere, achieving ever-higher profiles and spending ever-larger sums of money. The Times Guide to World Organisations lists every major world organization, detailing its leading staff, budget and resources, and current involvement in world issues. Breaking new ground in analyzing the significance, structure, and history of international organizations, this volume will become the indispensable guide to making sense of the New World Order.
