Book Subtitle | Human Rights Wars And America’S Response |
Editorial Review | Shattuck Combines Morality And Pragmatism, Arguing That Even Before September 11, The Costs To The U.S. Of Not Intervening Quickly And Decisively In Developing Human Rights Crises Outweighed The Advantages Of Remaining On The Sidelines. Without Assistance, States Collapse, And Failed States Become Centers Of Disorder And Loci Of Terrorism. Shattuck Correspondingly Calls For A Redefinition Of International Security, Based On Early Warning Of Human Rights Crises Followed By Preventive Measures, And, Where Necessary, Direct Intervention, Including Military Force.
