The United Nations under Boutros Boutros-Ghali, 1992-1997

By describing Boutros Boutros-Ghali's successes and failures as Secretary-General in the United Nations, this text predicts the UN's role in the new world order and forecasts the challenges it may face in the coming years.
This volume concerns the United Nations during the transformative period of the 1990s in which the UN and other countries used the UN to accomplish a wide variety of demanding and complex tasks. Of the seven secretaries-general, Boutros-Ghali was the most determined to guide the UN toward greater autonomy and power. Initially, his efforts bore fruit, especially as he received support from the U.S. in a number of different operations. This support, however, ended after the October 1993 killings of 18 U.S. Army Rangers in a UN operation in Somalia and subsequent wide-spread recrimination in the U.S. against the UN.
