TRUSTEESHIP COUNCIL Meaning and Definition

1. The Trusteeship Council is a term used to refer to one of the principal organs of the United Nations (UN). It was established under Chapter XIII of the UN Charter in 1945 with the primary objective of administering and supervising trust territories that were placed under its authority. Trust territories were territories that were not fully self-governing and were originally under the control of the League of Nations or were previously controlled by enemy states after World War II. The primary responsibility of the Trusteeship Council was to ensure that these territories were effectively governed and developed towards self-government or independence.

   The Trusteeship Council consisted of five permanent members, namely China, France, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, and the United States. It also included additional non-permanent members elected by the United Nations General Assembly. The council met regularly to review the progress made by the trust territories and to provide guidance and assistance for their development.

   As the process of decolonization unfolded and many trust territories achieved self-government or independence, the workload of the Trusteeship Council decreased significantly. By 1994, all trust territories had achieved self-government or independence, leading to a decision to place the council into a dormant state. Today, although it is not abolished, the Trusteeship Council is no longer active, and its duties and functions have effectively ceased. However, it remains in the UN Charter, ready to be reactivated if new trust territories were to emerge in the future.

Etymology of TRUSTEESHIP COUNCIL

The word "trusteeship council" is derived from two terms: "trusteeship" and "council".

1. Trusteeship: The term "trusteeship" originated from the word "trustee", which came from the Middle English word "truste" or "truste". It stems from the Old Norse "traust" meaning "confidence" or "faith". The term evolved to represent the responsibility or duty of someone acting as a trustee, who is entrusted with the care, management, or administration of certain assets, properties, or affairs on behalf of another person or entity.

2. Council: The term "council" has its roots in the Latin word "concilium", meaning "assembly" or "advisory group".

When combined, "trusteeship council" refers to a governing body or assembly responsible for the administration and supervision of a trusteeship.
