Research Abstract |
This study aims to analyze the United Nations functions for maintaining international peace and security, in particular the recent practice of the UN "robust" peacekeeping, of which activities are authorized under Chapter VII of the UN Charter by the UN Security Council, and also to consider the applicability of the law of international responsibility of international organization as well as of the concept of the accountability of international organization to the UN peace operations. The main result of this study is that the UN activities for peace and security have been diversified in response to the changing circumstances of international community after the end of the Cold War whereas they have been also restricted by certain rules of general international law, which may apply to the UN activities in general.
