One of the most important developments in world politics in the
last decade has been the spread of the idea that state sovereignty
comes with responsibilities as well as privileges, and that there
exists a global responsibility to protect people threatened by mass
atrocities. The principle of the Responsibility to Protect is an
acknowledgment by all who live in zones of safety of a duty of care
towards those in zones of danger. Thakur and Maley argue that this
principle has not been discussed sufficiently in the context of
international and political theory, in particular the nature and
foundations of political and international order and the strength
and legitimacy of the state. The book brings together a range of
authors to discuss the different ways in which the Responsibility
to Protect can be theorised, using case studies to locate the idea
within wider traditions of moral responsibilities in international
relations.
