In 2011, the UN Human Rights Council created the mandate of the Independent Expert on the Promotion of a Democratic and Equitable International Order. This book represents the findings of Dr. Alfred de Zayas, the first mandate-holder (2012-2018).

De Zayas proposes concrete reforms of the UN system, notably the Security Council, and advocates recognition of peace as a human right, self-determination as a conflict-prevention measure, slashing military expenditures, reversing the adverse impacts of World Bank and International Monetary Fund policies, rendering free-trade agreements compatible with human rights, abolishing tax havens and ISDS, alleviating the foreign debt crisis, criminalizing war-profiteers and pandemic vultures. Zayas denounces unilateral coercive measures, economic sanctions and financial blockades, because they demonstrably have caused hundreds of thousands of deaths. : 4e de couverture
