| | Title | Does the United Nations' Use of Collective Sanctions to Protect Human Rights Violate Its Own Human Rights Standards | | URL | http://heinonline.org/HOL/Page?handle=... | | Description | This article investigates whether the imposition of collective sanctions by the U.N. to punish or alter the behavior of a target nation's government results in the U.N. defying its own Charter. After examining precisely how collective sanctions are intended to work along-side specific U.N. human rights principles, this paper suggests that the U.N. may be in violation of its own Charter for denying basic human rights with the application of most collective sanctions. | | Authors / Editors | Fausey, Joy K | | Date Published | 1994 | | Download Citation | This citation can be downloaded in the following bibliographic database formats: Tagged; XML; BibTex |
