This book seeks to understand the obligation of the international
community to implement the principles of the Responsibility to
Protect (R2P). With a focus on the humanitarian crisis in Syria,
the volume examines what formal responsibility and actual
capability international institutions have to protect and prevent
civilians from systematic mass atrocities and presents an analysis
of several prominent international organizations (IOs). Each
chapter focuses on a specific organization and explores their
formal responsibilities and how these pertain to the obligations of
the R2P. Existing capabilities and actual abilities to address the
challenges of R2P are analysed by looking at these issues before,
during, and after the occurrence of the humanitarian crisis in
Syria. With the UN not fully engaged in the Syrian conflict, the
systematic human rights abuses have engendered greater attention on
other organizations. This volume argues that if the UN Security
Council's inactions result in an abdication of responsibilities
under the UN Charter, there should not only be a discussion of how
the UN must alter its approach, but also an examination of whether
there are alternative R2P paths for other MNOs to take in the name
of international peace and human security. This book will be of
much interest to students of R2P, humanitarian intervention,
international organisations, Middle Eastern politics and security
studies.
