Organizational structure of UNO

Explanation:

• With  the  attack  of  Germany  on  Poland  on  September  1,  1939,  the  Second  World  War  broke  out.  It  lasted  nearly  six  years  and  came  to  an  end  in  Europe  with  the  unconditional  surrender  of  Japan  on  August  14,  1945.  The  war  was  fought  between  the  allied  powers,  ie,  the  United  Kingdom,  the  USA,  the  USSR,  France  and  a  good  number  of  other  countries  on  one  side  and  the  Axis  Powers,  ie,  Germany,  Italy,  and  Japan  on  the  otherside.  It  was  a  total  war  and  it  gradually  engulfed  the  whole  world.
•  It  stirred  the  conscience  of  mankind  and  the  cry  went  forth  from  the  hearts  of  the  suffering  humanity. - 'Never  again' - There  grew  up  a  deep  and  universal  feeling  that  the  estableshment  of  a  naw  internal  organisation  was  essential  to  save  the  world  from  the  scourage  of  war  and  that  feelings  gave  shape  to  THE  INTERNATIONAL  INSTITUTION  OF  THE  UNITED  NATIONS. The  failure  of  the  League  of  Nations  to  prevent  war  and  to  promote  peace  strengthened  the  need  for  a  collective  security  system. During  the  world  war,  many  meetings  conferences,  declarations  were  held,  which  laid  down  the  basic  principles  of  the  U.N.  U.N.  is  based  on  the  principle  of   free  co - operation  of  its  members.  the  primary  objective  of  the  UN  is  maintenance  of  peace  and  security  in  the  world.  On  26th  June  1945,  51  nations  signed  the  charter  of  the  United  Nations  at  San  Francisco.  The  U.N.  charter  consists  of  111  articles.

• Organs  of  the  U.N.

The  U.N  charter  provided  for  six  organs  of  the  U.N.  It  is  through  these  organs  that  its  work  is  carried  out  for  the  fulfilment  of  the  purposes  of  the  U.N.  The  principal  organs  of  the  U.N  are  :-

1]  The  General  Assembly

2]  The  Security  Council

3]  The  Economic  and  Social  Council.

4]  The  Trsuteeship  Council

5]  The  International  Court  of  Justice.
