Domestic sovereignty (the right of a government not to be resisted
by its people) and international sovereignty (the moral immunity
from outside intervention) have both been eroded in recent years,
but the former to a much greater extent than the latter. An
oppressed people's right to fight for liberal democratic reforms in
their own country is treated as axiomatic, as the international
responses to the revolutions in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya
illustrate. But there is a reluctance to accept that foreign
intervention is always justified in the same circumstances. Ned
Dobos assesses the moral cogency of this double standard and asks
whether intervention can be consistently and coherently opposed
given our attitudes towards other kinds of political violence. His
thought-provoking book will interest a wide range of readers in
political philosophy and international relations.
