Download or read book The History and Politics of UN Security Council Reform written by Dimitris Bourantonis and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to take stock and evaluate the historical development of efforts to reform the Security Council from 1946 until 2000. By offering a historical and political account of the reform movement, which has evolved throughout the life of the UN, it gives the reader insights into the complex issues surrounding Security Council reform. This volume provides an analysis of the "sticking points" in the reform movement, including the right of veto, concerns about efficiency, legitimacy and representation and the possibility of adding to the Security Council new members or new classes of membership. The various chapters of this book, corresponding to different chronological periods, focus on key phases of the debate on Security Council reform, discuss the different approaches and attitudes of states to the issue in question and closely examine the most significant reform proposals. This book will appeal to students, academics and practitioners with interest in the UN and international organizations and international relations.

Download or read book Existing Legal Limits to Security Council Veto Power in the Face of Atrocity Crimes written by Jennifer Trahan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-08-13 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the author outlines three independent bases for the existence of legal limits to the veto by UN Security Council permanent members while atrocity crimes are occurring. The provisions of the UN Charter creating the veto cannot override the UN's 'Purposes and Principles', nor jus cogens (peremptory norms of international law). There are also positive obligations imposed by the Geneva and Genocide Conventions in situations of war crimes and genocide - conventions to which all permanent members are parties. The author demonstrates how vetoes and veto threats have blocked the Security Council from pursuing measures that could have prevented or alleviated atrocity crimes (genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes) in places such as Myanmar, Darfur, Syria, and elsewhere. As the practice continues despite regular condemnation by other UN member states and repeated voluntary veto restraint initiatives, the book explores how the legality of this practice could be challenged.

Download or read book Reimagining the International Legal Order written by Vesselin Popovski and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-24 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International law is usually conservative, with lawyers and judges emphasizing consistency, stability and predictability as the major advantages of the law. Legal scholars often prefer not to challenge the status quo, to suggest amendments, or to reform institutions, advocating simply to focus on the implementation of the laws that already exist. This collection stands different. It shares the authors’ discomfort with the present legal order and some of its institutions and courts, and dives into either a corrective or a profound reimagination of these, so that they can better address rising global challenges. Leading experts in their areas present their new and cutting-edge perspectives. Divided into six parts, the volume paints a vast yet solid thematic landscape of unique and critical approaches. The book invites and allows for a deep engagement with a wide range of opinions from across the world. It enables a free and courageous reimagining of the international legal order, detached from the endless feasibility skepticism. The work will be fascinating reading for students, academics and researchers working in the areas of International Law and International Relations.

Download or read book Democratic South Africa's Foreign Policy written by Suzanne Graham and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides readers with the first comprehensive study of South Africa’s foreign policy conducted in a multilateral setting, by placing on record over 1000 of South Africa’s votes at the United Nations over a 20 year period. The study investigates consistency in terms of South Africa’s declared foreign policy and its actual voting practices at the United Nations. Democratic South Africa’s Foreign Policy: Voting Behaviour in the United Nations offers a compendium of South Africa’s United Nations behaviour during a poignant transitional period in the country’s recent history. In setting out a framework for analysing the conduct of other countries’ voting behaviour in parallel with this study, it can be used to advance the field as a useful comparative tool. This book presents the material needed for International Relations scholars and practitioners in the field to make a reasoned and reflective assessment of this dimension of South Africa’s foreign policy.

Download or read book United Nations Peacekeeping and the Principle of Non-Intervention written by Jennifer Giblin and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-03-26 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a unique application of Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL), this book provides a critical, interdisciplinary, examination of the contemporary practice of UN peacekeeping. Is peacekeeping intervention? Since its conception in the mid-1950s, peacekeeping has significantly evolved from traditional, lightly armed, passive operations to robust, multi-dimensional stabilisation peacekeeping operations. This raises questions as to whether this is simply a natural evolution of peacekeeping or whether it marks an expansion of the concept beyond its boundaries, pushing it into the realm of peace enforcement or intervention. In response, this book examines the frameworks which govern UN peacekeeping and seeks to understand the relationship between peacekeeping and the principle of non-intervention. Providing practical examples from the United Nations’ operations in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and drawing upon interviews with key international actors including UN personnel, the book explores the boundaries of peacekeeping, contending that peacekeeping, at times, becomes a form of intervention. This, the book argues, is detrimental both to the concept of peacekeeping and to the host state, and it concludes by offering a series of recommendations to re-affirm peacekeeping’s boundaries and amplify the effectiveness of contemporary peacekeeping. This book will be of interest to scholars and students in international law, international relations, politics, history and criminology.

Download or read book Regional Security and Global Governance written by Kennedy Graham and published by ASP / VUBPRESS / UPA. This book was released on 2006 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling study of the interaction between regional agencies and the UN Security Council that includes a proposal for a regional-global security mechanism, which should be of interest to policy makers worldwide. This ground-breaking exploration into how peace and security might best be attained in the 21st century, its central message is the importance of realizing UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan's vision of a "regional-global security mechanism" within the next decade. The book reviews the historical tussle between universalism and regionalism as the cornerstone of international security over the past century, culminating in the "new regionalism" that has characterised international relations in recent decades. The complexities of contemporary regional, sub-regional and other organizations, blessed and burdened with overlapping membership, evolving mandates, and even shifting "focal areas" are analysed. The "multidimensional phenomenon" of regional security is explored--cultural, political and legal--with a view to understanding how regional organizations work today. This book is one of those rare offerings--a policy-oriented prescription for peace and security that is based on factual analysis and creative reasoning. It is a must for national diplomats, regional officials, and international civil servants.

Book excerpt: Given the Ukraine crisis, Russia’s resurgence and the burning crises in the South there has never been a better time to discuss European defence.

How to benefit from new partners without severing ties with traditional allies such as the US? How to contain Eurosceptic forces by reducing inequalities? And how to reinforce the euro while aiming at more sustainable and balanced growth?
