World Peace Through World Law

World Peace Through World Law

"World Peace Through World Law", first published in 1958, was a book by Louis B. Sohn and Grenville Clark proposing a Revised United Nations Charter [http://www.san.beck.org/GPJ27-Clark-SohnPlan.html#2] . Among other suggestions, they proposed:

*Allocating votes in the UN General Assembly based on member nations' populations;
*Replacing the UN Security Council with an Executive Council with China, India, USSR, and the US as permanent members, and no veto power; and
*Making a World Police Force the only military force permitted in the world.
