Booknews

A remarkably trenchant and well written legal analysis of humanitarian military intervention, following the evolution of international law and its present day ramifications in situations such as Iraq's aggression toward Kuwait and Rwanda's internal conflicts. US State Department attorney Murphy clearly highlights the theoretical, legal, and moral implications of intervention policy, reaching into the history of legal traditions to arrive at an understanding of the present United Nations charter governing international intervention policies.
