United
Nations Sanctions and the Rule of Law - The United Nations
Security Council has increasingly resorted to sanctions as part
of its efforts to prevent and resolve conflict. United Nations
Sanctions and the Rule of Law traces the evolution of the Security
Councils sanctions powers and charts the contours of the UN sanctions
system. It also evaluates the extent to which the Security Councils
increasing commitment to strengthening the rule of law extends
to its sanctions practice. It identifies shortcomings in respect
of key rule of law principles and advances pragmatic policy-reform
proposals designed to ensure that UN sanctions promote, strengthen
and reinforce the rule of law. In its appendices United Nations
Sanctions and the Rule of Law contains summaries of all 25 UN
sanctions regimes established to date by the Security Council.
It forms an invaluable source of reference for diplomats, policymakers,
scholars and advocates. Visit the Delamere
International Bookshop.
