In the Cause of Humanity is a major new history of the emergence of
the theory and practice of humanitarian intervention during the
nineteenth century when the question of whether, when and how the
international community should react to violations of humanitarian
norms and humanitarian crises first emerged as a key topic of
controversy and debate. Fabian Klose investigates the emergence of
legal debates on the protection of humanitarian norms by violent
means, revealing how military intervention under the banner of
humanitarianism became closely intertwined with imperial and
colonial projects. Through case studies including the international
fight against the slave trade, the military interventions under the
banner of humanitarian aid for Christian minorities in the Ottoman
Empire, and the intervention of the United States in the Cuban War
of Independence, he shows how the idea of humanitarian intervention
established itself as a recognized instrument in international
politics and international law.
