Description

Explore the complex relationship between human rights and the use of force in international law with this academic text from Cambridge University Press. As part of the Cambridge Studies in International and Comparative Law series, this volume examines the shift in global politics during the 1990s when humanitarian intervention became a central theme in international discourse. Author Orford provides a detailed analysis of the narratives that shaped legal justifications for military action. By reviewing legal texts and institutional practices, the book challenges the idea that interventions were driven solely by democracy and self-determination. Instead, it offers a critical look at how a more conservative and exploitative interpretation of intervention was actually implemented by the international community. This book is an essential resource for students, legal professionals, and researchers interested in international law and the history of global intervention. It provides a necessary perspective on how national interests and imperial ambitions can influence the legal frameworks used to justify the use of force.
