Eventually, however, the UN came to approximate a universal organization - idlest, open to and aspiring to include all States. This presents a legal question, for Article 4 of the Charter contains substantive criteria to limit admission of States to the UN and no formal amendment has touched that part of the Charter. This book gives an up-to-date account of admission to the UN, from the 1950's ?logjam? through on-going controversies like Kosovo and Taiwan. With reference to Charter law, the book considers how Article 4 came to accommodate universality and what the future of a universal organization in a world of politically diverse States might be. 410 0$aLegal aspects of international organization ;$v50. 606 $aInternational organization 615 0$aInternational organization. 676 $a341.23/3 700 $aGrant$b Thomas D.$f1969-$01482661 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792371803321 996 $aAdmission to the United Nations$93852368 997 $aUNINA
