Over the past one hundred years, the conceptual and legal aspects
of collective security have been the subject of much debate. Rapid
developments within the United Nations, its precursor the League of
Nations, and regional security institutions, as well as the
interaction between them, mean this debate has not so far succeeded
in capturing the essence and implications of collective security.
These developments in State and institutional practice strike at
the heart of the entire system of collective security, which
consists of universal, regional, and sub-regional levels, and
indicate how the relationship between these various levels should
be construed. Although the idea of collective security has raised
high political expectations, it has always been based on legal
instruments. Consequently, legal principles determine how far the
delegated powers of collective security institutions extend and how
the competencies of the United Nations relate to those of regional
organizations.
This book demonstrates that this inter-level interaction could find
its expression in cooperation as well as confrontation between
various collective security institutions, and influence the scope
of competence of relevant collective security organs. This process
then reinforces the concept of the unity of the multi-faceted
system of collective security within which no institution has the
power to conclusively define or interpret its own competence or
that of other institutions. The book's originality lies in its
dynamic and decentralized approach that focuses on the interaction
between the different levels of collective security and in its
comprehensive coverage of all pertinent institutions, competences,
and relevant practice.
