Publisher Synopsis
'In an economically integrated world riven still by ethno-religious strife and political divisions, new norms for the behaviour of nation-states toward their citizens are imperative. The volume edited by Richard H. Cooper and Juliette VoInov Kohler brings the global discourse on the emerging concept of the responsibility to protect to a new level. Not only does it state powerfully the moral and political case for R2P, it moves us toward a new understanding of what will be needed to gain wider acceptance and implementation of the principle. It defines more thoroughly and powerfully than any previous effort one of the most pressing tasks of a new era in world affairs' -Marshall Bouton, President, Chicago Council on Global Affairs Read more...
