By using an empirically-grounded method of inquiry, it examines how states attribute legal significance to resolutions in three different contexts: at the time of adoption, within domestic law and in international practice. is the book shows that, contrary to the existent theories on the legal significance of resolutions, the General Assembly is not a unitary actor. It also demonstrates that the concept of legal significance of resolutions is not predetermined or static. While resolutions are often framed in normative language, they acquire legal significance only to the extent that states find it desirable or convenient, depending on context and circumstances. Consequently, the attribution of legal significance to resolutions turns out to be a manifestation of state will to abide by their content, not the will of the General Assembly"-- $c Provided by publisher. 610 20 $a United Nations. $b General Assembly $x Resolutions. 610 27 $a United Nations. $b General Assembly. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00529526 650 0 $a International obligations. 650 6 $a Obligations internationales. 650 7 $a LAW / International. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a International obligations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00977029 655 7 $a Resolutions (Law) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01910828 776 08 $i Online version: $a Deplano, Rossana. $t Empirical and theoretical perspectives on international law $d Cambridge, United Kingdom ; New York, NY : Cambridge University Press, 2022 $z 9781108678698 $w (DLC) 2022012587 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017030303.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1DCD8352803411ED944134D030ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
