WHAT EVERY AMERICAN SHOULD KNOW ABOUT
THE UNITED NATIONS
For years the Association staff and its members have been answering basic questions on the United Nations system: How does the U.N. affect our daily lives? What is the history of the U.S.-U.N. relationship? Who sets U.S. policy at the U.N.? How can citizens participate in the world organization? What does it all cost? Now, for the first time the answer to these and many other questions can be found in one attractive and highly readable pamphlet.

This highly informative brochure describes the U.N.'s origins and structure; the mandate of its principal organs, specialized agencies, and programs; and a sampling of the U.N. system's many accomplishments.
