This book analyzes the Responsibility to Protect (R2P) in the
context of the conflict in Darfur, using detailed empirical
evidence. The volume traces Darfur's evolution from forgotten
conflict to a major global cause and back to obscurity. The
emergence of a far-reaching international response to the war in
Darfur began in 2004 and included the most influential
international advocacy movement since the anti-apartheid campaign
and one of the world's largest peacekeeping missions. The book
analyzes how Darfur slid back into international obscurity after
2011, despite ongoing violence against civilians and the continued
risk of conflict escalation following Omar al-Bashir's ousting in
April 2019. Based on an analysis of more than 100 interviews and
over 1,000 media reports, the book examines one of the most
pressing questions related to the R2P: why do some situations of
mass atrocities cause an international outcry, while others are met
with complacency and silence? It argues that the presence or
absence of a compelling narrative, which frames a situation in
moral terms and unambiguously conveys who is responsible, who
suffers, and what should be done, facilitates whether or not
sufficient traction will be gained to beget a robust R2P response.
This book will be of much interest to students of the
Responsibility to Protect, human rights, peacekeeping, conflict
resolution, African politics and International Relations in
general.
