Annotation A broad-ranging introduction to the theory, practice and politics of humanitarian intervention in the contemporary world. This second edition has been fully updated and includes a new chapter on Libya and the Arab Spring.

Review: 'Highly recommended. Lively and accessible, and a wonderful resource for teaching. Aidan Hehir provides a comprehensive overview of the history, theory and practice of humanitarian intervention, and of the concepts, controversies, moral claims and political calculations that have shaped the field.' - Anne Orford, Michael D Kirby Professor of International Law, University of Melbourne 'This thoughtful and thought-provoking book presents an accessible and engaging introduction to the key issues involved in humanitarian intervention. It will not end debates over this important subject, but it will ensure that those debates are better informed.'- Simon Chesterman, New York University School of Law, USA, and author of Just War or Just Peace? 'Objectively surveying a wide range of perspectives on an inherently contentious topic, this is an outstanding teaching tool and a textbook from which scholars will benefit as much as their students.' - Anthony F. Lang, Jr., School of International Relations, University of St Andrews.
