While much research has emphasized the ambitious origins of the collective security system that was still born with the onset of the Cold War, this project focuses on lesser-known illustrations whose pertinence for contemporary global governance will be obvious. Each chapter will take three snapshots: "Then," the imaginative and transnational thinking about solutions to post-war problems demonstrated a realization that victory in World War II required an intergovernmental "system" with enough power and competence to work-that is, the United Nations was not established as a liberal plaything and public relations ploy but rather as a vital necessity for post-war order and prosperity. "Now," what often seems a pale imitation of wartime thinking nonetheless reflects a growing and widespread recognition of the fundamental disconnect between the nature of trans-boundary problems and feasible solutions involving 193 UN member states.
"Next steps," or the project's collective wisdom about the range of new thinking and new institutions that, in fact, may well have antecedents in wartime thinking and experimentation and could be labelled blue-prints for a "third generation" of intergovernmental organizations. This work will be essential reading for all students and scholars of the United Nations, International Organizations and Global Governance.
