Abstract
The article provides an analysis of acts of international governance aimed at overcoming the crisis of the Vienna security system; also, it shows their contribution to the development of the international relations and law in the middle of the XIX century. Furthermore, the author conducts research of the major objects of the international governance, and provides historical-political interpretation of the norms of international law concerning guarantee of sovereignty, resolution of territorial problems, protection of human rights and those of patrials, peaceful resolution of disputes. In the 20th–30th of the XIX century, European security law has been based on the recognition of Austria, Great Britain, Prussia and Russia in the capacity of “Europe wide legislators” who define legal order and balance of power in Europe. At the edge of 30th–40th of the same century, France joined the group of powerful countries. London Conventions of 1840–1841 formalized military-political balance that had formed by the time, allowing interstate relations to develop peacefully in the course of coming ten years. However, it turned out to be impossible to avoid the Crimean war, caused by the unequal status of Turkey and by the possibility of other states to interfere in its internal affairs as well as by the opportunity to create manifold coalitions. The norm of Paris tractate about religious freedom and toleration has become the unique norm of international law. If the Peace of Westphalia of 1648 applied the norm about protection of religious toleration for the first time only to the protestants, Paris congress of 1856 drew Muslim Turkey to “Concert of Europe” whereby making it guarantee toleration towards its Christian patrials.
