The UN in Africa: Who Benefits?

September 19, 2007 - 9:31 am - by Claudia Rosett

Would you want the UN designing your country’s development policy? (See below, for example, on Ahmadinejad’s annual UN-hosted roadtrip; yet more Oil-for-Food hijinks; “Ethics” duplicity; whistleblower apartheid; weapons-inspection “inventory,” Libyan-led preparations for a reprise of the bigoted “anti-racism” UN Durban conference, etc).

So why are we sending to UN to meddle at every level in Africa? Some observations on this in my article for the new Fall issue — with a focus on Africa– of the Journal of International Security Affairs.
