About
"The UN system is financed through assessed contributions from its 185 members but has been persistently short of money ever since the beginning. Both the regular budget and the peacekeeping budgets have been overstretched. The UN has been accused of bureaucratic inefficiency and waste. This decade has seen attempts by UN Secretaries-General Boutros-Ghali and Annan to streamline the running of activities and to cut costs. This book looks at the past and at how the UN needs to satisfy the demands of the US, which is both its largest contributor and debtor."--BOOK JACKET.
