Abu-Ghazaleh Launches His New Book ‘From the United Nations to the United People’

AMMAN – In light of the escalating global instability and the rising concerns over the possibility of heading toward a Third World War, the prominent Arab economist and businessman HE Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh, founder and chairman of Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Global Digital (TAG.GD), launches his new book entitled: ‘From the United Nations to the United People’. The book explicitly calls for adopting  comprehensive reform and overhaul of the United Nations organization. He believes that the UN is no longer capable of fulfilling the role it was established to perform eight decades ago.

This  new book, which includes 15 articles, reflects Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh’s extensive experience, at a time of profound disturbance in the global order. He asserts that the United Nations is seen as unable to maintain international peace and security, and it can no

longer protect human rights independently away from major powers’ interests, or ensuring justice in relations among nations and peoples.

Moreover, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh, an influential international leader  and one of the most prominent figures who had held senior roles in the United Nations, states that reforming the UN is no longer a theoretical luxury; rather, it has become an urgent necessity, especially amid the widespread devastation caused by wars across the globe.

Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh also outlines a comprehensive vision based on the urgent need to redefine the very concept of the United Nations, proposing a transformation towards a United People. Such an entity, he says, should represent the concerns and interests of individuals around the globe, rather than serving the interests of the most powerful countries. He further calls for leveraging the technological revolution to revive the UN, introducing new mechanisms that enable broader public participation in global decision-making.

Throughout the book, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh examines the ever-growing challenges that the current structure of the UN has failed to resolve or adequately respond to, from regional to international conflicts, environmental and health crises, as well as profound technological changes. He warns that the existing world order is at risk of collapse if fundamental reforms are not undertaken.

In this book, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh praises the UN’s significant achievements and noble objectives over the past eighty years; accomplishments that have greatly benefited humanity worldwide, but at the same time, the world has changed, and the UN in its current structure is no longer capable of keeping pace with today’s challenges. In this publication, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh presents a strategic framework and a global call to action directed to policymakers, intellectuals, and global leaders, affirming that the time of change has come.
