Humanitarian Intervention after Kosovo: Iraq, Darfur and the Record of Global Civil Society

By Aidan Hehir

When should the international community intervene to prevent suffering within sovereign states? This book argues that since Kosovo, the normative thesis has failed to influence international politics, as evidenced by events in Iraq and Darfur. This critique rejects realism and offers a new perspective on this important issue.
