The United Nations Charter is the treaty that forms and establishes the international organization called the United Nations[1]. While this document is often misconstrued as a constitution it is, in fact, an agreement between states and not a compact among the individual peoples to create a government. It was signed at the United Nations Conference on International Organization in San Francisco, California, United States, in 1945, by 50 of the 51 original member countries (Poland, the other original member, which was not represented at the conference, signed it later). It entered into force on October 24, 1945, after being ratified by the five permanent members of the Security Council—the Republic of China (later replaced by the People's Republic of China), France, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (later replaced by the Russian Federation), the United Kingdom, and the United States—and a majority of the other signatories.

As a Charter, it is a constituent treaty, and all members are bound by its articles. Furthermore, the Charter states that obligations to the United Nations prevail over all other treaty obligations [1]. Most countries in the world have now ratified the Charter. One notable exception is the Holy See, which has chosen to remain a permanent observer state and therefore is not a full signatory to the Charter.

The Charter consists of a preamble and a series of articles grouped into chapters.[2]

    * Chapter I sets forth the purposes of the United Nations, including the important provisions of the maintenance of international peace and security.

    * Chapter II defines the criteria for membership in the United Nations.

    * Chapters III-XV, the bulk of the document, describe the organs and institutions of the UN and their respective powers.

    * Chapters XVI and Chapter XVII describe arrangements for integrating the UN with established international law.

    * Chapters XVIII and Chapter XIX provide for amendment and ratification of the Charter.

The following chapters deal with the enforcement powers of UN bodies:

    * Chapter VI describes the Security Council's power to investigate and mediate disputes;

    * Chapter VII describes the Security Council's power to authorize economic, diplomatic, and military sanctions, as well as the use of military force, to resolve disputes;

    * Chapter VIII makes it possible for regional arrangements to maintain peace and security within their own region;

    * Chapters IX and Chapter X describe the UN's powers for economic and social cooperation, and the Economic and Social Council that oversees these powers;

    * Chapters XII and Chapter XIII describe the Trusteeship Council, which oversaw decolonization;

    * Chapters XIV and Chapter XV establish the powers of, respectively, the International Court of Justice and the United Nations Secretariat.

Answer 2

I did manage to read the human rights charter and some of the main charter about the scourge of war and such. the human rights charter sounds real good, almost like an elaborate bills of rights (based on god given rights here). but in the case of the un charter of human rights it lists something like 25 or more rights, then in one sentence takes it all away.

it states these rights can in no way be exercised contrary to the goals and purposes of teh united nations.

so what they are saying they are gods giving rights and taking them away when they conflict with some policy or agenda where the rights stand in the way.

by the way many of those rights include the right to property and not to have it taken by force or without just compensation, another is right to adequate medical care, another is right to adequate food, water and a right to a home. Right to freely travel, etc. sounds just like the bill of rights but worded differently. right to a job is in there too.

I can't imagine that an organization whose sole goal is supposed to end the scourge of war can ever see a need to trample any of those rights, are they saying you have the right to food and water as long as they don't covet those resources for their own profit? are they saying if your not able to work or are disabled or disagree with something and peacefully say so you can't have food water or a home? so are they saying they are going to take those rights away when they stand in their way of some scheme?

If the purpose of the un is to enforce rights how can then they take away something they are supposed to protect? that is like saying we are protecting your freedoms by taking them away. how much sense is that? no the un is a organization whose sole purpose is to unify the world under the control and for the benefit of bankers, but they are in for a rude awakening.

Full cliff-note type summaries would be hard to find.  You are asking for a lot of time to summarize the entire charter.  It is difficult to understand.  The exact location of the full text charter is below.  Good luck.
