The World Intelligentsia and Unesco

UNESCO, seen by some as the instrument of an intelligentsia in the management of the new world, has come to be a highly official, bureaucratized body, encumbered by its complicated organization and a lack of defined purposes. The roles of the Com munists, the new countries, and the Western countries are described, along with major trends. Several radical reforms of attitude and structure are suggested. The author is Professor of Government at New York University and a member of the Delegation of the United States to the Eleventh General Conference of UNESCO, November-Decem ber 1960
