Beschreibung
Humanitarian intervention is one of the most controversial issues in contemporary world politics. Emerging norms of human protection, which have their roots in the 1990s but have become more prominent since the turn of the century, have changed international practices and debates about how international society should respond to the problem of genocide and mass atrocities. Assuming no prior knowledge, and written for students and general readers as well as practitioners and scholars, this important new book by a leading expert addresses a range of key challenges in the wake of the experiences of Iraq, Libya and Syria including the consistency, efficacy and accountability of intervention, and whether regime change and unilateral intervention are ever justified.
