This book argues that since the end of the Cold War an
international community of liberal states has crystallised within
the broader international society of sovereign states.
Significantly, this international community has demonstrated a
tendency to deny non-liberal states their previously held sovereign
right to non-intervention. Instead, the international community
considers only those states that demonstrate respect for liberal
democratic standards to be sovereign equals. Indeed the
international community, motivated by the theory that international
peace and security can only be achieved in a world composed
exclusively of liberal states, has engaged in a sustained campaign
to promote its liberal values to non-liberal states. This campaign
has had (and continues to have) a profound impact upon the
structure and content of international law. In light of this, this
book deploys the concepts of the international society and the
international community in order to construct an explanatory
framework that can enable us to better understand recent changes to
the political and legal structure of the world order and why
violations of international peace and security occur.
