Redefining UN Peacekeeping-Law and Revival of the Trusteeship Council

The United Nations is the largest global organization that deals with Peacekeeping in International War Zones. Relying on a global task force that comprises troops of member countries made available at the behest of the UN's requirements, and falling back on the resolutions of the Security Council, the extant system is fraught with inconsistencies. There are no legal provisions or overarching legislative instruments to govern peacekeeping operations - which in turn makes the entire system vulnerable to faults. Consequently, many troops have been accused of being involved in unscrupulous practices, while the system itself lacks any monitoring capacity to evaluate the progress of the missions. This book makes the case for the development of an overarching legal instrument to govern peacekeeping, and for the revival of the Trusteeship Council to manage peacekeeping operations instead of the Security Council.
