Collective Security System of the UN is based on the principle of

  • A.All for one, one for all
  • B.Imposing sanctions against the belligerent state unilaterally
  • C.Maintenance of security by the major powers
  • D.Balance of power to be maintained by state of equilibrium.

Answer: A

The collective security system of the UN rests on the principle of 'all for one, one for all', so (A) is correct. An attack on any member is treated as a threat to all, and the Security Council may call on all members to act against the aggressor under Chapter VII of the Charter. Option (B) is wrong because sanctions are imposed collectively, and not unilaterally by one state. Option (C), maintenance of security by the major powers, describes the concert idea. Option (D), balance of power by equilibrium, is the older system that collective security is meant to replace.
