This book concentrates on one of the major concerns of the United
Nations: world peace. Aiming to trace the development of the
concept of peace from the foundation of the UN until today, the
book investigates on what conceptual understanding the UN was
instituted in 1945 and what notion of peace has become apparent in
subsequent UN policy as it is performed by the primary UN organs.
Along the lines of this research program, the book seeks to reveal
the changing underlying assumptions about how a peaceful world
order looks and how it should be brought about. Beyond these
aspects of semantic change, the book also explores the
institutional dimension of this organizational concept by carving
out how it is anchored in functional-normative structures of the
world organization, its policy, and rhetoric. It builds on an
interdisciplinary approach of institutional analysis and conceptual
explanation that combines interpretive methods from international
law scholarship, conceptual history and policy analysis.
