1 UN Charter art. 33:

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, mediation, conciliation, arbitration, judicial settlement, resort to regional agencies or arrangements, or other peaceful means of their own choice. … The Security Council shall, when it deems necessary, call upon the parties to settle their dispute by such means.”

2 This was the title of the important book by Hans Kelsen, published in 1944, which set forth his vision for aUN system that aimed for “peace guaranteed by compulsory adjudication of international disputes” (Part I).
