The Role of the Third and Sixt Committees of the United Nations General Assembly in the International Law-Making

 

Dr. Kutlay Telli 




Abstract

 

It has been already proven that the General Assembly of the United Nations plays a pivotal role in the constant development of international law. This duty particularly covers the codification of international standards and principles. This article is largely dedicated to the output of the work of Third and Sixth Committees of the General Assembly. Most resolutions and decisions of the General Assembly seem non-binding. Nevertheless, most of them always have a certain potential to turn into hard-law norms.
