Abstract:

The war against economic freedom, the free enterprise system, and the multinational corporations permeates the U.N. structure. This ideology not only is antithetical to U.S. interests and policies, but more important, stifles economic growth and development in the Third World. Thus, U.N. policies may ensure that developing countries remain perpetually dependent on U.S. and Western aid and perpetually hostile to American economic values and principles.
