Security Council resolutions have undergone an important evolution
over the last two decades. While continuing its traditional role of
determining state-specific threats to peace and engaging
accordingly in various peaceful or coercive measures, the Security
Council has also adopted resolutions that have effectively imposed
legal obligations on all United Nations member states. This book
seeks to move away from the discussions of whether the Security
Council - in the current composition and working methods - is
representative, capable or productive. Rather it assesses whether
legislative activity by the Security Council can be beneficial to
international peace and security. The authors examine and critique
the capacities of the Security Council to address thematic
international threats - such as terrorism, weapons proliferations,
targeting of civilians, recruitment of child soldiers, piracy - as
an alternative to the traditional model of addressing
country-specific situations on a case-by-case basis. Ultimately,
the book seeks to assess the efficacy of the Security Council as
global legislator in terms of complementing the Security Council's
mandate for the maintenance of international peace and security
with a preventative and norm-setting capacity. The book presents
views from a diverse range of Security Council stakeholders
including academic scholars, political analysts, and international
lawyers. This resource will be of great interest to students of
international relations, international organizations and
international security studies alike.
