Humanitarian intervention: international morality or global ideal?

Paul Gilbert ; University of Hull

Sažetak

Drawing upon Strawson’s contrast between social morality and individual ideals, this paper develops a distinction between international morality and global ideals. International morality, it is argued, consists of rules regulating the conduct of those occupying the role of statesman. Thus the morality of coercive humanitarian intervention, for example, depends upon its conformity to these rules. Much recent thought on this issue, however, justifies intervention in terms of some global ideal, of which there are many, and this, it is claimed, is a mistake.
