Sažetak
This paper deals with the relation between embargo as a coercive economic measure provided in Article 41 of the Charter of the United Nations, and human rights as peremptory norms of international law. The authors try to answer the question how to find a balance between demands for more efficient embargoes and demands for more humane embargoes. Firstly, the theoretical concept of the embargo is discussed, and then we analyze various types of embargoes in the light of the United Nations Security Council practice. Afterwards, an analysis of the relevant provisions of the Charter of the United Nations is given, and the embargo implementation machinery is presented, with a concise review of the legal nature of the embargo. Finally, fundamental human rights protected by peremptory norms of international law are explained, along with the limitations they present to the implementation of embargo in the United Nations system.
