Synopsis

This book uses three in-depth case studies to illustrate the shortcomings of conventional multilateral diplomacy in dealing with emerging transnational problems. David T. Twining discusses the United Nation's Commission on Sustainable Development and its inability to carry out the promises of the 1992 Rio Earth Summit; the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, and its difficulty in achieving its goals in troubled areas such as Bosnia; and the relatively successful efforts of the World Bank Group, a multilateral institution. With the approach of the 21st century, Twining argues, nation-states must seek to engage the widest number of participants and to find ways to go 'beyond multiculturalism' as it currently exists, if global environmental, economic, and security problems are to be resolved.
