  • More about Ethics, Law and Natural Hazards: The Moral Imperative for International Intervention Post-Disaster


The international community has a moral duty to intervene on behalf of a population affected by a natural hazard when their government is unable or unwilling to provide basic, life-saving assistance. This book provides policy suggestions based on an ethical analysis and encourages readers to consider the nuances of arguments from various disciplines about whether or not intervention is appropriate.

The international community is morally obligated to intervene on behalf of populations affected by natural hazards when their governments fail to provide essential, life-saving assistance. This compelling book, rooted in law, international relations theory, and political philosophy, argues that non-response to natural disasters is unethical. Through thoughtful policy suggestions, the author presents an ethical framework for intervention in the aftermath of natural hazards. By offering readers an ethical lens through which to evaluate intervention, the book encourages them to consider the complexities of arguments across various disciplines. While advocating for the development of an intervention policy in response to natural hazards, the study also acknowledges the limited circumstances in which intervention should be employed. This interdisciplinary approach makes the book an invaluable resource for researchers, academics, and policy-makers in the fields of international law, humanitarian studies, human rights, international relations, and political science.
