Opis

The UN Military Staff Committee is a misunderstood organ, and never really worked as initially envisaged. This book charts its historic development as a means to explain the continuous debate about the reactivation of the Military Staff Committee and, more generally, the unsatisfied need for the Security Council to have a military advisory body.
