A Problem of Mixed Motives: the Responsibility to Protect in Syria Husain A

Gatlin Seton Hall Law Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship Part of the International Law Commons Recommended Citation Gatlin, Husain A., "A Problem of Mixed Motives: The Responsibility to Protect in Syria" (2012). Law School Student Scholarship. 20. https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship/20 A PROBLEM OF MIXED MOTIVES: THE RESPONSIBILITY TO PROTECT IN SYRIA Husain A. Gatlin1 INTRODUCTION Diplomatic measures have repeatedly failed to prevent sovereign States from committing genocide or systematic killings, at a time when intervention is needed the most. At the same time, decisive military intervention has proven effective in curtailing the escalation of crimes against humanity. Throughout the world, from Cambodia to Bosnia to Libya, the international community has intervened with military force to prevent and respond to mass atrocities against civilians. Thus, the legitimacy of military action to address humanitarian crises remains an integral part of the discourse for the international community.2 In Syria, massive human rights violations have been committed and continue as President Bashar al-Assad uses state-sponsored military action to murder protestors and opposition forces alike. Under the Responsibility to Protect (“R2P”), the international community formally accepted its responsibility to protect populations from genocide, mass killings, ethnic cleansing, and crimes against humanity. Military action based on the R2P principle is an operative solution for the United Nations and its Member States to honor their duty to prevent and to protect Syrian citizens who are presently under attack by the Assad regime. -
HI 2108 Reading List
For students of HI 2106 – Themes in modern American history and HI 2018 – American History: A survey READING LISTS General Reading: 1607-1991 Single or two-volume overviews of American history are big business in the American academic world. They are generally reliable, careful and bland. An exception is Bernard Bailyn et al, The Great Republic: a history of the American people which brings together thoughtful and provocative essays from some of America’s top historians, for example David Herbert Donald and Gordon Wood. This two-volume set is recommended for purchase (and it will shortly be available in the library). Other useful works are George Tindall, America: a Narrative History, Eric Foner, Give me Liberty and P.S. Boyer et al, The Enduring Vision all of which are comprehensive, accessible up to date and contain very valuable bibliographies. Among the more acceptable shorter alternatives are M.A. Jones, The Limits of Liberty and Carl Degler, Out of our Past. Hugh Brogan, The Penguin history of the United States is entertaining and mildly idiosyncratic. A recent highly provocative single- volume interpretative essay on American history which places war at the centre of the nation’s development is Fred Anderson and Andrew Cayton, The Dominion of War: Empire and Liberty in North America, 1500-2000 All of the above are available in paperback and one should be purchased. Anthologies of major articles or extracts from important books are also a big commercial enterprise in U.S. publishing. By far the most useful and up-to-date is the series Major problems in American History published by D.C. -

He describes how many humanitarian organizations have moved from their founding principle of neutrality, which gave them access to victims, to encouraging the international community to take action to stop civil wars and ethnic cleansing. By calling for intervention, humanitarian organizations risk being seen as taking sides in a conflict and thus jeopardizing their access to victims. And by overreaching, the humanitarian movement has allowed itself to be hijacked Bibliography by the major powers. Rieff concludes that if humanitarian organizations are to do -
