Reviews

This lucid, thoughtful synthesis makes excellent sense of the dense web that international organizations have spun around the globe over the last two centuries. Above all, by highlighting their role in relation to states and by assessing their performance, this volume provides a welcome introduction to a prime feature of our globalized world.--Michael H. Hunt, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill The author has written a balanced, fair introduction to the modern history of international organizations. While the survey of the League of Nations is well-done, the book really comes alive with its analysis of the United Nations. The final chapter, surveying recent UN operations, is excellent. A World Beyond Borders is an effective resource for undergraduate students of international relations.--George Egerton, University of British Columbia
