Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | The UN Security Council and International Law explores the legal powers, limits and potential of the United Nations Security Council, offering a broadly positive (and positivist) account of the Council's work in practice. This book aims to answer questions such as 'when are Council decisions binding and on whom?', 'what legal constraints exist on Council decision making?' and 'how far is the Council bound by international law?'. Defining the controlling legal rules and differentiating between what the Council can do, as opposed to what it should do as a matter of policy, this book offers both a tool for assessment of the Council as well as realistic solutions to address its deficiencies, and, most importantly, evaluates its potential for maintaining international peace and security, to the benefit of us all. |

| Beschreibung: | Literaturverzeichnis: Seite 201-213, Register "This book is an updated and expanded version of the Hersch Lauterpacht Memorial Lectures on The UN Security Council and International Law, given at the University of Cambridge's Lauterpacht Centre for International Law on 7, 8 and 9 November 2006 ... The lectures drew on Michael Wood's experience of Security Council matters while working at the United Kingdom Mission in New York between 1991 and 1994, as well as following the Council closely while in the FCO between 1994 and 2006 ... The many additions and updates have been made with the assistance of Eran Sthoeger, who brought a fresh view from his time working for Security Council Report between 2010 and 2020 and thereafter teaching United Nations law."--ECIP Preface |
