OverviewThe year 1998 was a particularly eventful one for the United Nations, including a conflict in Iraq, the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the adoption of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, a permanent court to judge international crimes, including genocide and war crimes. 1998 witnessed the growing impact of globalization, both positive and negative. The pages of the 1998 yearbook of the United Nations reflect the efforts of the UN to harness the positive potential of globalization while managing its adverse effects, and to formulate to principles, norms and rules that are essential if globalization is to benefit people everywhere. The yearbook is divided into six parts covering political and security questions, human rights issues, economic and social questions, legal questions, institutional, administrative and budgetary questions, and intergovernmental organizations related to the UN. Chapters and topical headings present summaries of pertinent UN activities, including those of intergovernmental and expert bodies, major reports, Secretariat activities and, in selected cases, the views of states in written communications.
