The Impact of the Activity of the United Nations General Assembly in Maintaining Peace among the States of the World

Summary/Abstract: The United Nations Organization is based on the sovereign equality of all its members, on each state, large or small, all states being equal. The General Assembly is the sole body in which all members states of the United Nations have an equal chance to discuss their common issues of global concern. The United Nations General Assembly represents the sole authority appointed as the open conscience of the world. Since all the members of the General Assembly have a right to vote, the resolutions on issues of global concern are adopted by a majority vote. Some resolutions of the General Assembly are fundamental and they may undoubtedly create general law principles. Thus, the General Assembly may contribute, indirectly if not directly, to the progresses recorded in the process of law modernization. The UNO Charter attributes to the Assembly the task of making recommendations that may progressively contribute to the development and codification of the international law.
