Humanitarian intervention : the United Nations in an evolving world order

Murphy, Sean D.1996
Book
¿́¿This is an excellent book on the legal issues regarding humanitarian intervention. It is comprehensive, balanced, and alive to nuance and complexity, providing an invaluable guide both to recent UN peacekeeping efforts and to the evolving role of international law with respect to the use of force. Murphy assesses the concept of humanitarian intervention vis-©¿-vis the matrices of international law, moral philosophy and political theory and tapping all traditional sources of international law in doing so.¿́¿ -- SAF Professional Reading Programme, 4th Edition ¿́¿ STAGE III: MAJ 2 to LTC 1.
