doi:10.5771/9783845275017

Summary

Internationale Organisationen gewinnen in der Globalisierung immer weiter an Bedeutung – und damit auch die Frage nach der Kontrolle ihres Handelns. Die UN-Generalversammlung hat kürzlich eine Erklärung verabschiedet, wonach rechtsstaatliche Prinzipien auch für die Vereinten Nationen selbst geltend sollen. Was aber bedeutet die „rule of law“ für die Vereinten Nationen? Was ist ihre Rechtsgrundlage, Definition und Wirkung? Wissenschaftler und Praktiker erörtern diese Fragen im vorliegenden Band und beleuchten die Relevanz der „rule of law“ für die verschiedenen Tätigkeitsbereiche der UN. Sie zeichnen den Status quo der Rechtsstaatlichkeit in den Vereinten Nationen nach und diskutieren ihre wachsende Bedeutung für die Zukunft der UN.
