Summary/Abstract: As a significantly ambiguous and controversial key-concept in the academic and diplomatic vocabulary of contemporary international relations, the principle of national self-determination was mainly addressed over the past decades by the United Nations. As the legitimate successor of the League of Nations, and underlying by its very name the importance of nations, the United Nations has unfortunately provided a frequently inaccurate, inappropriate and inoperable legal framework designed to settle eventual and real situations of self-determination. The present article investigates these principal deficiencies as they occur in UN’s major resolutions regarding the peoples’ right to self-determination.
