Abstract

In general UN parlance conflicts are resolved by different methods; for instance, by negotiation, consultation, arbitration and adjudication. Article 33, paragraph 1 of the UN Charter states this succinctly: The Parties to any dispute the continuance of which is likely to endanger the maintenance of international peace and security, shall first of all seek a solution by negotiation, enquiry, judicial settlement … This is to say that the settlement of conflicts by any of the above methods is a continuous process which must involve the art of negotiations since interests are never similar and permanent. This is why negotiation has been defined as a ‘process in which explicit proposals are put forward ostensibly for the purpose of reaching agreement on an exchange or on the realisation of a common interest when conflicting interests are present’.1
