Abstract

The Peaceful Settlement of International Disputes is a mechanism that was established in 1945 within the framework of the United Nations Charter as one of the ways to respond to the need to put an end to violence as a mechanism to resolve disputes between states. This paper addresses a controversy that has historically arisen between the States of Guyana and Venezuela, which revolves around a territorial dispute. The above, to stress the limitations of the different mechanisms that make up the peaceful resolution of international disputes. Likewise, some final reflections are offered that roughly propose to continue deepening in the achievement of a political and legal regulation that allows trying to solidify the current principles and move towards a society of nations that begin to behave more like a community, where the rules of International Law, with its most relevant principles, can sign the friendly, pacifist and cooperative relations between the peoples of the world.
