Exploring the Responsibility to Protect Doctrine: Perspectives from the Global South

The United Nations in the Arab World Program at the Issam Fares Institute for Public Policy and International Affairs held a lecture and discussion "Exploring the Responsibility to Protect Doctrine: Perspectives from the Global South" by Dr. Rama Mani. The talk addressed the "Responsibility to Protect" and International Intervention as it relates to the Arab World. It discussed the findings of Dr. Mani's co-edited book, Responsibility to Protect: Cultural Perspectives from the Global South with Thomas Weiss (Routledge 2011). Dr. Mani used a comparative approach drawing on her experience on the subject and her work on transitional justice, conflict transformation and peace building.
