SPRINGERBRIEFS IN LAW DEPLANOTHE STRATEGIC US...

The book offers insights on whether international law can shape the politics of the Security
Council and conversely  the extent to which the latter contribute to the development of
international law. By providing a systematic analysis of the quantity and quality of
international legal instruments referred to in the text of resolutions  the book reconstructs
patterns of the Security Council's behavioural regularities and assesses them against the
provisions of the United Nations Charter  which establishes its mandate. The analysis is
divided into three periods - the origins and Cold War period  post-Cold War period and the
twenty-first century - and assesses the resolutions passed in each period by thematic category.
The book argues that while international law plays an important role in shaping the politics of
the Security Council  the Council's resolutions do not contribute significantly to the
development of international law.
