DESCRIEREA FIRMEI

ONU nu este un guvern si nu emite legi. Ofera totusi mijloace pentru rezolvarea conflictelor internationale si pentru formularea de politici in chestiuni care ne afecteaza pe toti. In cadrul Organizatiei toate statele membre ¿ mari sau mici, bogate sau sarace, cu vederi politice si sisteme sociale diferite ¿ au un cuvant de spus si drept de vot egal.


ONU are sase organisme distincte. Cinci dintre ele ¿ Adunarea Generala, Consiliul de Securitate, Consiliul Economic si Social, Consiliul de Tutela si Secretariatul ¿ au sediul central in New York. Cel de-al saselea - Curtea Internationala de Justitie - isi desfasoara activitatea la Haga, in Olanda.
