Application: Considerations for Military Intervention
The United Nations, individual nations, and many human rights
organizations monitor the occurrences of social injustice around
the globe. To prevent and combat social injustice, these
organizations and nations may employ mediation, sanctions,
and/or military intervention. Military intervention may be
considered the strongest response to combat social injustice and
is not undertaken lightly. Criteria exist to initiate military
intervention and there is latitude in how those criteria are
interpreted and applied. In some cases, like the Rwandan
genocide, nations and organizations took no action based on
their interpretation of the criteria. It is important to note which
factors contribute to the interpretation and application of
criteria used to determine a need for military intervention.
To prepare for this assignment
:
Review the articles, "Fact Sheet: United Nations Peacekeeping"
and "Lessons from Rwanda." Consider the role of the United
Nations related to military intervention and social injustice and
how it relates to genocide.
Review the article, "The Responsibility to Protect: Sound and
Fury Signifying Nothing?" Reflect on the use of
international policies and agreements related to social
injustice.
Go to the Interactive Map, "Social Justice Issues," and review
the issues that led to genocide in Rwanda. Consider the human
rights issues and the social justice response in that specific
case. Consider what factors contributed to Western nations'
decisions to intervene or not in the case.
Select at least two factors that you think a nation should
consider to determine whether or not to intervene militarily in
another nation (such as Rwanda) where social injustices
occur.
Think about why the factors you selected might explain the
rationale for the military intervention or might explain the
nation's inaction.
The assignment (2 pages) Due by Sunday 2/4/18
Briefly summarize the key events of the Rwandan genocide.
Briefly describe the factors you selected related to the decision
to militarily intervene or take no action.
Explain why these factors justify a nation's decision to
intervene militarily or take no action.
