ANALYSIS: UNITED NATIONS’ PERFORMANCE IN THE LIGHT OF CONTEMPORARY GLOBAL CHALLENGES by Prof Tal Edgars.pdf

It is an undeniably fact that the United Nations plays an important role in our world. Since its 

establishment, its main aim is to be a beacon of international peace and security in all means. However, the organizations recently suffered from a lot of institutional, political and other problems, as well as problems within its significant organs like General Assembly, International Court of Justice and most importantly, the Security Council. The United Nations has showed a lot of failures and inactions in tackling and solving a lot of contemporary political conflicts, civil wars, and humanitarian crises that have been escalated since the Arab Spring’s revolutions in 2011. Moreover, the problems it suffers from have become more severe, overwhelming and have been threatening its integrity, objectivity, credibility and effectiveness in the eyes of a lot of scholars, international experts, countries and populations. 

Therefore, I intend to give a critical analysis to the current functioning of the United Nations organization.
