Synopsis

This study examines the evolution of international humanitarian law since World War II, prompted by widespread human rights violations. It focuses on the United Nations' role in protecting human rights and the challenges posed by mass population displacements. The book questions whether the international community's reluctance to intervene in sovereign states, despite escalating humanitarian crises and their destabilizing effects, is a price too high to pay.
