The composition of the United Nations Security Council has changed little since 1945. Such structural stagnancy and lack of change has prompted numerous cries for reform. Russett brings together a group of specialists to examine the arguments for why change is needed, and the prospects for achieving such change. Asking tough questions about who would gain power and who would lose it from various proposed reforms, these essays point out which proposals are feasible and which are impractical. In addition, the contributors offer new suggestions for how to enhance the efficiency and legitimacy of the Security Council. An unflinching analysis of power and where it resides in the UN, The Once and Future Security Council illuminates the past and reveals what could very well be the future of this complex international body.
