This book examines the United Nations Security Council's authorisation of the use of force, considering the extensive body of UN Security Council resolutions across its now 8 years of existence.
As one of the established exceptions to the Article 2(4) UN Charter prohibition on the use of force, UN Security Council authorisation of force remains a key focus for both States and scholars alike. Despite the apparent consequences of authorisation, authorising resolutions lack prescribed formats or mandatory content. The UN Security Council has, however, developed a consistent practice of prior explicit authorisation.
UN Security Council practice overwhelmingly shows that authorising resolutions explicitly determine a situation a threat to international peace and security, invoke Chapter VII (or VIII), use specific authorising language, place time or functional limits on authorisation, and impose reporting obligations on those authorised to use force. The book ultimately argues that prior explicit authorisation constitutes a well-established practice, rejecting the legality and admissibility of implicit or retroactive authorisation.
