Question

Despite the fact that the United Nations charter made it illegal for any state signing it to use force, except in cases of self-defense or collective security, the Security Council has rarely used its full power to take action against violators because___________

a) its permanent membership status did not change to reflect changes in relative power status among countries of the world.
b) it closely resembled a classical balance of power mechanism attached to a collective security system, and ran into familiar problems of power politics, self-interest and free rider issues
c) problems of power politics, member self-interest, and free rider problems meant that major decisions have more often been left to ad-hoc tribunals instead
d) its decisions were not binding on any states, given the ambiguity of charter wording

Answer 2

The Security Council has rarely used its full power to take action against violators because c) problems of power politics, member self-interest, and free rider problems meant that major decisions have more often been left to ad-hoc tribunals instead

What is the justification?

Although the United Nations charter forbids member states from using force unless necessary for self-defense or collective security, the Security Council has hardly ever employed its full authority to prosecute offenders. This can be ascribed to a number of things, such as the issues with free riders, member self-interest, and power politics.
