Humanitarian intervention is a critical international relations concept aimed at preventing human suffering and human rights violations. It encompasses military and non-military actions, often under UN auspices, guided by the Responsibility to Protect norm. Case studies like Kosovo, Syria, and Myanmar illustrate the complexities and ethical dilemmas faced. Lessons from past interventions inform future strategies for global cooperation and effective crisis response.
