With the fall of communism and the appearance of a new world order,
it is hoped that the United Nations will become the principle
organisation for the regulation of relations between states as well
as for the settlement of conflict. The recent crises over Iraq and
the continued bloodshed in the former Yugoslavia have ensured a
higher profile for the United Nations but have at the same time
placed great pressure on that organisation to resolve conflict and
organise relations between states in a manner that is acceptable to
the international community. The essays collected in this volume
are published in conjunction with the International Law Group.
Providing valuable statements of the fundamentals of international
law from leading authorities, they re-examine the Declaration of
Principles of International Law Governing Friendly Relations
Between States. The Declaration is the nearest thing that states
have to an international constitution and embodies the fundamental
values of the international legal system. The great changes in the
international system since 1989 hold out the prospect of the
reinvigoration of the Charter, perhaps for a new system of
international legal relations, and make the reconsideration of the
Declaration particularly timely.
