The Rule Of Law And Its Application To The United Nations (Studies Of The Max Planck Institute Luxembourg For International, European And Regulatory Procedural Law)

Description

International organizations become more and more important in the process of globalization. In recent years, the number and scope of measures taken by the UN has increased accordingly but also the legitimacy concerns related to these measures. The question of how to control and legitimize the activities of the UN is thus ever more pressing.
While recent works on the rule of law in international law prove the timeliness of the topic, these questions concerning the UN have never before been addressed in a scholarly work in a comprehensive manner. This volume serves this purpose.
