Post-2015 UN development : making change happen

edited by Stephen Browne and Thomas G. Weiss

"Based on extensive original research that has critically examined the role and functions of the organizations of the UN development system, this book seeks to capture in a single volume a comprehensive review of the UN's performance and prospects for development. The contributors each offer extensive experience and familiarity -- as practitioners and researchers -- with the UN and development; and the book will contribute to the urgently needed debate on the reform of the UN development system at a critical juncture."
