The pivot on which present day jus ad bellum hinges is Article 2(4) of the charter which articulates the principle of the prohibition of force in international relations. Article 2(4) avoids the term ‘war’. The use of force in international relations proscribed in the article includes war and transcends war to cover forcible measures short of war. Today Article 2(4) constitutes the basis of any discussion of the problem of the use of force. 110 The use of force in general is prohibited, rather than only war.
