Excellent- More about History of Humanitarian Intervention

The question of humanitarian intervention has been a central pillar of international law for nearly two centuries, with a renewed fascination with the history of this topic emerging in the past two decades. This comprehensive book offers a chronological exploration of the evolution of the debate, unveiling the fictional narratives crafted by international lawyers to support their conclusions on the matter. From justifications and arguments for humanitarian intervention to the misrepresentation of great power involvement in the Greek War of Independence in 1827 and the hypothetical humanitarian intervention that never materialized, India's war with Pakistan in 1971, the book presents an alternative, non-dogmatic account of the struggle for the protection of human rights in international law. Drawing upon a diverse range of sources, some of which have been made available in English for the first time, this book provides a valuable contribution to our understanding of the complex and evolving field of humanitarian intervention.
