Abstract
Chapter VI of the Charter of the United Nations has generally been regarded as one of its most poorly drafted parts; and the experience of the Security Council in dealing with cases recently coming before it has both evidenced the uncertainties of the text and added to the confusion as to its meaning. The difficulties of the Council were increased by the tendency of members to disregard the text of the Charter and by the lack of Rules of Procedure. As a result important issues have been raised, especially in the Soviet-Iran case, and more particularly as to the decision that a dispute exists concerning which the Council may make recommendations.Keywords
