Series of treaties from the UN

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The treaty series of the United Nations , (Engl. United Nations Treaty Series , UNTS), the contract register the UN, in which are listed according to their entry into force in chronological order by the Secretariat all deposited with that contract. According to Art. 102 of the UN Charter, Art. 80 of the Vienna Convention deposited with the United Nations contracts are registered in anthologies ( Volume summarized) and then in the Treaty Series of the United Nations (Engl. United Nations Treaty Collection , UNTC) published.

Content of the UNTS

The contract series only contains the registered contracts and the registration number, it does not contain any current information on declarations, reservations, ratifications or terminations by the contracting states.

These anthologies are published in the UN Treaty Collection (UNTC) in pdf format, they consist of the title page ( United Nations Treaty Series ), the number of the anthology (e.g. Volume 76), the list of the registered treaty titles, their registration numbers, the information by whom the contract was deposited and then the individual contracts.

In the UN treaty collection, not only the UN treaty series (UNTS), but also that of the League of Nations Treaty Series (LNTS) are published.

The UNTS begins with anthology 1 ( Volume 1 ) and contains the contracts registered by the Secretariat between December 14, 1946 and March 31, 1947. Today it contains over 2,800 anthologies ( volumes ) and 158,000 contracts.

Likelihood of confusion

The UNTS partially with the Treaty Series of the United Nations confused (UNTC) by, for example, is. Linked to the status of ratification of a treaty ( status of treaties ) and erroneously as the source of the United Nations Treaty Series (UNTS) instead Treaty Series ( United Nations Treaty Collection , UNTC ), but this is something completely different. Such individual evidence only proves that the treaty was registered by the UN and does not say anything about the wording, the current declarations and reservations of the contracting states. Obviously, if such itemized evidence is to prove which states ratified the treaty, it is a matter of confusion.
