1: Dag Hammarskjold
The large and difficult United Nations operation Dag Hammarskjold conducted in the Congo led, in 1961, to armed clashes between the peace-keeping forces and Katanga rebels and, in turn, to Hammarskjold's death in a mysterious plane crash. UN troops have not engaged in fighting since.
In a profile of Hammarskjold, David Wheeler assesses his impact as Secretary-General and reflects on the shortcomings of the UN as a means of settling international conflicts.
Speakers include: Henry Cabot Lodge, The Rt Hon The Lord Home of The Hirsel, Dean Rusk , Brian Urquhart , Under-Secretary-General of the UN, Sir Patrick Dean , former British representative to the UN, and the chairman of the UN investigation into Hammarskjold's death. Producer
