The UN Secretary-General and the Security Council
Author: Manuel Fröhlich
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0191065730
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
The United Nations Secretary-General and the United Nations Security Council spend significant amounts of time on their relationship with each other. They rely on each other for such important activities as peacekeeping, international mediation, and the formulation and application of normative standards in defense of international peace and security - in other words the executive aspects of the UN's work. The UN Secretary-General and the Security Council fills an important lacuna in the scholarship on the UN system. Although there exists today an impressive body of literature on the development and significance of the Secretariat and the Security Council as separate organs, an important gap remains in our understanding of the interactions between them. Bringing together some of the most prominent authorities on the subject, this volume is the first book-length treatment of this topic. It studies the UN from an innovative angle, creating new insights on the (autonomous) policy-making of international organizations, and adds to our understanding of the dynamics of intra-organizational relationships. Within the book, the contributors examine how each Secretary-General interacted with the Security Council, touching upon such issues as the role of personality, the formal and informal infrastructure of the relationship, the selection and appointment processes, as well as the Secretary-General's threefold role as a crisis manager, administrative manager, and manager of ideas.

Summary of Grant McGarry's A Night in the Pech Valley
Author: Everest Media,
Publisher: Everest Media LLC
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 52
Book Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The night after the memorial, our squad trained every night behind our hooch in an open gravel field. We went over react to contact drills, fire commands, and close quarters combat tactics. We were looking for more than revenge; we were bloodthirsty. #2 The mission was set: Objective Blackbeard was a lone house with a few surrounding homes in the farmlands of Afghanistan. There had been reports of movement throughout the day with armed men in and around the house. Weapons had been positively identified via ISR footage. #3 As the team moved towards the target building, they began taking fire from the ridgeline. The sound of the open bolt weapon and the sight of the tracer rounds ripping through the sky left a trail of green fire. #4 I was determined to kill the insurgent that had killed my friend, so I sprinted back into the fight. I caught up with Rooster, and we took a knee at the end of the farm field. We turned on our lasers and began engaging the combatant. We dropped him in his tracks with precision fired shots.
