The International Law Commission was established in 1947 with a
view to carrying out the responsibility of the General Assembly,
under article 13(1)(a) of the Charter of the United Nations, to
"initiate studies and make recommendations for the purpose of ...
encouraging the progressive development of international law and
its codification." Since its first session in 1949, the Commission
has considered a wide-range of topics of international law and made
a number of proposals for its codification and progressive
development, some of which have served as the basis for the
subsequent adoption of major multilateral treaties. The Yearbook of
the International Law Commission contains the official records of
the Commission and is an indispensable tool for the preservation of
the legislative history of the documents emanating from the
Commission, as well as for the teaching, study, dissemination and
wider appreciation of the efforts undertaken by the Commission in
the progressive development of international law and its
codification. Volume II (Part One) reproduces the edited versions
of the official documents considered by the Commission at the
respective annual session.
