Beskrivning
Why the international community should have intervened in Rwanda. Kassner contends that the violation of the basic human rights of the Rwandan Tutsis morally obliged the international community to intervene militarily to stop the genocide. This compelling argument, grounded in basic rights, runs counter to the accepted view on the moral nature of humanitarian intervention. It has profound implications for our understanding of the moral nature of humanitarian military intervention, global justice and the role moral principles should play in the practical deliberations of states.

The horrific moral failure of the world community during the Rwanda tragedy raises some of the most troubling dilemmas about humanitarian military intervention.

This is a powerful book on the vexing questions of human wrongs and global responsibilities in our fast emerging globalized world.
