By questioning the roles cast and identities constituted, in what could be compared to a theatrical drama, focus is given to the unreliable narration of the most powerful characters on the international stage – from the US to the UN – and its impact on the political and legal stances taken in various contexts. On a meta-level, it examines the conditions that enable this unreliable narration, by pointing out a problematic flexibility owing to the paradoxes and conflation entrenched in human rights rhetoric; what some call a budding ‘humanity’s law’. Attention is meant to be drawn to the power of mental imagery conjured up by intervention narratives, based on the story of saving innocents, as embodiments of humanity. The goal is to foster self-reflection among readers working in humanitarian intervention, within the epistemic community of international lawyers, and beyond. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Vahabzadeh Foundation for financially supporting the publication of best works by young researchers of the Graduate Institute, giving a priority to those who have been awarded academic prizes for their master’s dissertations.Drama of Humanitarian Intervention Law (General)human rightsUnited Nation Security Councilgovernanceinternational security agendaconflict security and peacebuildingsecurityinternational lawWorld war IIInternational Court of Justiceinternational security agendasecurityWorld war IIhuman rightsInternational Court of Justiceconflict security and peacebuildinginternational lawUnited Nation Security CouncilgovernanceLaw (General)human rightsUnited Nation Security Councilgovernanceinternational security agendaconflict security and peacebuildingsecurityinternational lawWorld war IIInternational Court of JusticeJoy Marrer Natalie1366266FR-FrMaCLEBOOK9910416493603321The Drama of Humanitarian Intervention3388744UNINA01847oas 2200649 a 450 991069343910332120251106213014.0(OCoLC)466736530(CONSER) 2009231641(CKB)1000000000815731(EXLCZ)99100000000081573120091118b20072011 ua aengur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierNCEA e-news[Newark, Del.] Clearinghouse on Abuse and Neglect of the Elderly of the University of Delaware5 volumes digital, PDF file2152-8195 National Center on Elder Abuse e-newsOlder peopleAbuse ofUnited StatesPeriodicalsAbused older peopleUnited StatesPeriodicalsAbused older peoplefast(OCoLC)fst01199482Older peopleAbuse offast(OCoLC)fst01199094United Statesfasthttps://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJtxgQXMWqmjMjjwXRHgrqPeriodicals.fastPeriodicals.lcgftOlder peopleAbuse ofAbused older peopleAbused older people.Older peopleAbuse of.305United States.Administration on Aging.GPOGPOGPODLCOCLCQOCLCFOCLCOGPOOCLCQFEMOCLCQGILDSOCLCOOCLCQOCLCAOCLOCLCLOCLCQJOURNAL9910693439103321NCEA e-news3205006UNINA
