Pris: 1187 SEK exkl. moms  |  Empowering the UN Security Council: Reforms to Address Modern Threats provides an in-depth analysis of the challenges and opportunities associated with empowering the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) to fulfil its primary responsibility: to maintain international peace and security.
Across ten chapters, this timely book addresses several areas of possible reform, without amending the UN Charter, to improve the representative character of the UNSC, empower its elected members, restrain the use of the veto, and enhance the UNSC's ability to respond to modern threats including aggression and mass atrocity crimes. It explores the UNSC's relations with internal and external partners, including tapping the potential of the UN General Assembly, reinforcing the International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court, as well as strengthening cooperation with regional arrangements.
Now, more than ever, there is a realistic possibility borne out of the imperative of necessity to reform the UN Security Council to better ensure international peace and security for future generations. Bringing together an international cast of experts from multiple disciplines and all five regions of the world, Empowering the UN Security Council offers a roadmap toward a more legitimate and effective UNSC.
