Books by David J. Whittaker

An examination of the role of the UN in the major political crises of the postwar world - from Korea to the Gulf War and Yugoslavia.

Conflict and Reconciliation examines the interdependent processes of conflict origins, resolutions and reconciliation, in the light of eight case studies including Yugoslavia, Israel, Northern Ireland and South Africa.

This provides an interdisciplinary history of the UN and debates the key issues for its future. David J. Whittaker gives a cogent analysis of how the UN addresses today's world problems and how it can adapt for the future.
