World politics in the post-Cold War world has become increasingly institutionalized. However, the role of international organizations has been overlooked in much of the literature on international regimes. Now in paperback, The United States and Multilateral Institutions examines United States policy in areas ranging from international trade to human rights, and in institutions such as the International Monetary Fund (IMF), GATT and the World Health Organization

Discusses the effectiveness of the UN as a multilateral negotiating forum by considering whether particular cultural groups negotiate similarly; how the cultural background of delegates affects substantive positions; & the effect of culture on the style of negotiation. The degree to which culture impacts negotiations processes regarding human rights, the new international economic order (NIEO), & the Gulf War are examined. It is argued that participants held firmly to their cultural frameworks of understanding within the human rights debate; defined initial differences within the NIEO debate, but have steadily declined; & culture played a relatively minor role in the case of the Gulf War. To move its members toward a negotiated outcome, the UN has developed several procedures: increased use of consensus decision making, power steering of major donors, & outstanding leadership in specific negotiations.

Surprisingly little systematic research has been completed on evaluating the impact of intergovernmental organizations (IGOs) at a time when participation in their activities has come under close scrutiny. Both theoretical weaknesses and methodological inadequacies plague researchers who are interested in the effects of outcomes on affected parties, be they intergovernmental organizations, governments or, ultimately, individuals. In this paper, we examine the problems confronting this type of research and assess the strategies so far employed to overcome some of these shortcomings. We shall also examine some approaches appropriate to generating hypotheses concerning IGO impact and propose a comprehensive framework suitable for further research.
