Abstract

U okviru ovog rada, čija je tema međunarodnopravna regulacija oružja za masovno uništenje, analizirani su najvažniji međunarodnopravni instrumenti čiji su predmet uređenje vrsta oružja koje, zbog njihovih posebnih karakteristika, ubrajamo u oružje za masovno uništenje. U radu se izlaže povijesni pregled uređenja upotrebe biološkog oružja, analiziraju ključne odredbe Konvencije o biološkom oružju te slučajevi njegove nezakonite uporabe nakon stupanja Konvencije na snagu. Na sličan je način nakon toga analizirana povijest kemijskog oružja, od njegove najranije uporabe pa sve do druge polovine 20. stoljeća, preko Konvencije o kemijskom oružju i njenih najvažnijih odredbi, podjele kemijskog oružja, osnivanja, zadaće i djelovanja Organizacije za zabranu kemijskog oružja, do primjera nepoštivanja odredbi Konvencije. Posljednji su analizirani ugovori koji uređuju nuklearno oružje, Ugovor neširenju nuklearnog oružja i Ugovor o zabrani nuklearnog oružja, te Savjetodavno mišljenje Međunarodnog suda o zakonitosti uporabe nuklearnog oružja. Za kraj, razmatrano je suzbijanje proliferacije oružja za masovno uništenje od donošenja prethodno navedenih međunarodnih ugovora.

Abstract (english)

Within this paper, the subject of which is the international legal regulation of weapons of mass destruction, we analyze the most important international legal instruments, the subject of which is the regulation of the types of weapons that, due to their special characteristics, are considered weapons of mass destruction. In this paper, we provide a historical overview of the regulation of the use of biological weapons, the analysis of the key provisions of the Biological Weapons Convention and cases of its illegal use after the entry into force of the Convention. After that, the history of chemical weapons is analyzed in a similar way, from its earliest use until the second half of the 20th century, through the Convention on Chemical Weapons and its most important provisions, the classification of chemical weapons, the establishment, tasks and activities of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, to examples of non-compliance with the provisions of the Convention. The treaties governing nuclear weapons, the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, and the Advisory Opinion of the International Court of Justice on the legality of the use of nuclear weapons are also analyzed. Finally, the suppression of the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction since the adoption of the aforementioned international treaties is considered.
