These 13 essays focus on the challenges associated with interventions, conflict and attendant human rights violations, unmitigated and systematic violence, state re-building, and issues associated with human mobility and dislocation. Each chapter is linked to the rest through three defining themes that permeate the book: the evolution of humanitarian interventions in a global era; the limits of sovereignty and the ethics of interventions; and the politics of post-intervention: (re)-building and humanitarian engagement.Key FeaturesIncorporates case studies including Kosovo, Timor-Leste, Syria, Libya and IraqExamines the complex issues of the morality and legality of international interventions; non-military interventions (sanctions and aid); humanitarian intervention and Responsibility to Protect (R2P)
