To Intervene, or not to Intervene...
Friday, June 3, 2011 at 12:54PM The idea of Responsibility to Protect (R2P) in of and of itself isn't necessarily controversial, putting it into practice however is. Before we look more deeply at situations that can be considered candidates for R2P action, let's look at the two sides of the issue full on. This link will take you to the Munk Debates site. Their mission is to provide a lively and substantive forum for leading thinkers to debate the major issues facing the world and Canada.
The following link will take you directly to the debate on Humanitarian Intervention
There you can click on the argument for R2P and the argument against. The statements are clear and well written and, I know for my part, generate a lot of thoughtful reflection.
We'd love to know what your thoughts are. Please share them in the comments section.
