Faith-based organizations at the United Nations
Faith based organizations at the United Nations
Finally there is a book that addresses the increasing presence and relevance of faith-based organizations at the United Nations. In his coherent and accessible analysis, Jeffrey Haynes shows how FBOs navigate UN's liberal secular ethos with an eye on their ideological differences. The book examines selected faith-based organizations (FBOs) and their attempts to seek to influence debate and decision-making at the UN. Increasing attention on FBOs in this context has followed what is widely understood as a widespread, post-Cold War 'religious resurgence', which characterizes a novel 'postsecular' international environment. One aspect of the new postsecular environment is increasing focus on global public policy at the UN, from FBOs from various religious traditions, especially Christianity, Islam and Judaism.
