This book observes how the growth of the political authority of the
Council challenges the basic idea that states have legal autonomy
over their domestic affairs. The individual essays survey the
implications that flow from these developments in the crucial
policy areas of: terrorism; economic sanctions; the prosecution of
war crimes; human rights; humanitarian intervention; and, the use
of force. In each of these areas, the evidence shows a complex and
fluid relation between state sovereignty, the power of the United
Nations, and the politics of international legitimation.
Demonstrating how world politics has come to accommodate the
contradictory institutions of international authority and
international anarchy, this book makes an important contribution to
how we understand and study international organizations and
international law.Written by leading experts in the field, this
volume will be of strong interest to students and scholars of
international relations, international organizations, international
law and global governance.
