Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Politik - Internationale Politik - Thema: Int. Organisationen u. Verbnde, Note: 1.7, Freie Universitt Berlin, Veranstaltung: Politik: Rechtliche Grundlagen der Politik-Mass murderers and armed conflicts, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to explore the question of whether the United Nations when conceiving the idea of a collective security system did put their major efforts in chapter VII of the UN Charter to realize their conception for a safer world. Its unequivocal that thereby the Security Council was vested with broad competences as any other organ of the UN and its empowerment with the responsibility to restore and maintain peace and security by using all necessary available means allowed it to have the "last say" in many conflicts and situations.
