UN Security Council Reform

This volume evaluates the current state and future reform prospects of the UN Security Council, providing an accessible and rigorous treatment of the subject of reform. Apart from some critical eyes in the academic community, few have asked the pertinent questions that this volume addresses: Will the enlargement of the Council constitute a reform? Could the inclusion of countries such as India, Germany, Japan, Brazil, South Africa and Nigeria improve the Council's agency? As the future of the UN Security Council continues to provoke fierce debate, this book will be essential reading for students of international relations, international organizations and international security studies.
