The United Nations has played a key role in all of the major security issues during this period - increasingly called upon to address other global problems such as poverty and international crime - while the European Union has created a single currency and moved towards the adoption of a constitution. The growing significance of the World Trade Organisation and other economic institutions has led some to talk of the emergence of a structure of global governance; and international non-governmental organisations and social movements are now widely seen as forming a kind of global civil society that both challenges and participates in these developments. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBuilding on the success of the previous edition (\u003ci\u003eVersailles to Maastricht: International Organisation in the Twentieth Century\u003c\/i\u003e), this book is a valuable introduction to the complex history of modern international organisation.
