STATE SOVEREIGNTY AND HUMANITARIAN INTERVENTION

Journal Title: Medzinárodné vzťahy - Year 2017, Vol 15, Issue 2

Abstract

The present article addresses the concepts of violation of state sovereignty. It examines whether human rights explicitly adhere to the sphere of internal affairs of states or to the sphere of international interest of global society. The author states that had the humanitarian intervention been accepted by law, it would provide limitless options to use military power in cases of humanitarian necessity. It would mean that in a situation in which political advantage would coincide with the existence of a humanitarian cause for intervention, a conclusion could be drawn that the inevitable precondition for a humanitarian intervention is met in all circumstances.
