| Description: |
A study of the main ethical and political arguments on intervention and a critical evaluation of recent publications on the ethics of intervention. Includes discussion on international institutions, humanitarian considerations, philosophical arguments and the role of public opinion and the media. Aimed at students in political fields. |
| Synopsis: |
This publication features a collection of contemporary papers that examine both the efficacy and morality of foreign intervention into a country's affairs. When is a war not a war? Under what circumstances is humanitarian intervention by the international community justified? In what circumstances can a state legitimately put at risk the lives of members of its armed forces? These are some of the questions raised through the essays contained in this book. The authors consider the main ethical and political arguments surrounding the subject of intervention, and between them, cover a wide range of areas, coming to focus on international institutions and international law, domestic and political viewpoints, humanitarian consideratons, the applicability of the just war theory, and the role of public opinion and the media. |
