The United Nations organization was planned to be established as a single universal system of collective security. Major efforts were supposed to be taken by the UN Security Council. Regional organizations were introduced into the system as a subordinate subsidiary means – elements of the system. Over the course of the time it has, however, appeared that the UN Security Council was not able to act in the way prescribed by the UN Charter in suppressing newly emerged threats and challenges in the sphere of security. In the contrary, the role of regional organizations has increased substantially. They do the majority of tasks in the sphere of maintenance of international peace and security, often without authorization or even informing the UN Security Council, although the legality of some of these actions may be dubious. As a result, the Council itself transfers the accent in relations between the UN and regional organizations from subsidiarity to complementarity or even partnership. It is thus necessary to re-check the meaning of the concepts of complementarity and subsidiarity as well as the UN Charter provisions in the changed circumstances and to specify principles of the new system.
Белорусский государственный университет , 220030, г. Минск, пр. Независимости, 4 Аннотация В марте 2020 г. впервые в истории Совета ООН по правам человека Спецдокладчиком стала представительница Беларуси-Елена Довгань, доктор юридических наук, профессор кафедры международного частного и европейского права факультета международных отношений Белорусского государственного университета. В ведении Елены Довгань оказались вопросы негативного воздействия санкций, и этот мандат приходится на непростое время: несмотря на призывы многочисленных государств, международных организаций и НКО отказаться от ограничительных мер, США, ЕС и их партнеры заблокировали проект резолюции ООН по борьбе с коронавирусом, предполагавший ослабление санкций и отказ от торговых войн. В интервью для «Евразия.Эксперт» Спецдокладчик из Беларуси раскрыла, как работает система спецпроцедур ООН и в чем заключается суть непростого труда международного эксперта.

Cyber technologies have changed all spheres of contemporary life at both the national and international levels. At the same time, legal regulation in the sphere stays far beyond technical developments. As a result, an enormous number of new terms and concepts have been invented in the area. It is maintained sometimes that the changes are so drastic that the very notion of sovereignty is outdated and the individual becomes a key actor of international relations. Consequently, there is a clear need to assess the impact of cyber technologies on the enjoyment of human rights. Due to the absence of proper legal regulation, the necessity or possibility to state the emergence of the new ‘fourth’ generation of human rights on the Internet is already discussed. The present article focuses on the status of different categories of human rights in the digitalized world. It concludes that the development of cyber technologies may hardly cause the emergence of a new generation of human rights but rather results in the need to adapt the whole system of the existing human rights to the emerging reality.
