Chapter IX of theUnited Nations Charter deals with international economic and social cooperation. Article 55 reflects the philosophy of the UN that efforts should be made to impact the root causes of war:
Article 56 requires members to "take joint and separate action in co-operation with the Organization for the achievement of the purposes set forth in Article 55." Given the different socioeconomic philosophies and systems advanced by theUS- andSoviet- led blocs, this was an ambitious goal.UNESCO and similar specialized agencies were brought under the UN umbrella in accordance with the provisions of this chapter. Chapter IX is analogous to Article 23 of theCovenant of the League of Nations, although the UN Charter does not mentionopium and other dangerous drugs.
