Abstract
This article explores the UN-oriented international legal order as the fundamental reason for justifying the necessity of the dispute settlement mechanism in intergovernmental organizations. In that case, provisions of the Charter of the United Nations are seen as the primary reference for all intergovernmental organizations. Among them, however, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (CSO) partially inherits this practice and a dispute settlement mechanism is not permitted within its structure. Under this circumstance, it will further discuss the unique nature of the settlement of disputes within the SCO.
