The United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) was founded in 1947 to promote economic cooperation in Europe and bridge the Cold War divide. It was the first postwar international organization dedicated to this purpose and was founded by the USA and the Soviet Union. Despite competition from other organizations, UNECE managed to carve out a niche and set norms and standards that still impact the lives of millions today. This book provides a unique study of the organization and its role in the history of internationalism and European integration.

The United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) emerged as a groundbreaking postwar international organization in 1947, with a primary focus on fostering economic cooperation within Europe. By seamlessly blending the universal principles of the United Nations with the regional dynamics of Europe, both Cold War superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union, played pivotal roles in its founding. Building upon the challenging legacy of the League of Nations, the UNECE embarked on a mission to facilitate transcending boundaries set by the Cold War. Despite facing competition from other organizations, the UNECE managed to carve out a unique niche for itself, establishing norms and standards that continue to impact the lives of millions in Europe and beyond. In the face of a prevailing geopolitical trend, the UNECE achieved remarkable success in bridging the Cold War divide on numerous occasions, maintaining a robust network of contacts across the Iron Curtain. This book offers a comprehensive and unique exploration of this significant yet understudied international organization. By integrating research on the Cold War, the history of internationalism, and European integration, Stinsky weaves these diverse historical threads into a coherent analytical narrative.
