About this ebook

United Nations Formation explores the creation of the UN in 1945, detailing the negotiations and geopolitical forces that shaped this pivotal moment in world history. The book examines the failures of the League of Nations and the devastating impact of World War II, which created a unique opportunity for international collaboration and the pursuit of global peace. It highlights the ambitious goals of the UN, including maintaining security, fostering cooperation, and promoting human rights. A key insight is how the UN's formation represented a shift towards collective security, despite inherent imperfections.

The book adopts a chronological and thematic approach, beginning with wartime conferences like Dumbarton Oaks and Yalta, where Allied powers debated the UN's structure and powers. It analyzes the drafting of the UN Charter, its core principles, and the establishment of key organs like the Security Council and the General Assembly. The book emphasizes the compromises and debates, such as the veto power within the Security Council, that shaped the UN's creation.

By focusing on the historical context of 1945, the book offers a valuable perspective for understanding the UN's origins and its continued relevance in international relations and politics.
