With the fall of communism and the appearance of a new world order,
the United Nations hopes to become the principle organization 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 also placed great pressure
on that organization to resolve conflict and organize 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 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 re-evaluation of the Charter, and perhaps for a
new system of international legal relations.
