Abstract
- This paper examines various forms of legal control of decisions taken by the U.N. Organs and the role of the international Court of Justice. Firstly, it outlines the role of the U.N. Charter itself and the role of the international law in general. It also discusses the power of member states' consent as the (de)legitimator of the U.N. activity. It then goes on to review the procedures and processes via which the exercise of the powers of the U.N. organs can be challenged by the International Court of Justice and, in particular, discusses whether Security Council resolutions can be subjected to judicial review by the ICJ. Finally, the paper indicates prospects for future development towards greater control and limitation of powers of the U.N organs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
