Strangers in peril

Article Abstract:

The principle of sovereignty is overridden by the international responsibility to protect when the state government fails to discharge the responsibility to protect their citizens. The High-Level Panel on Threats, Challenges and Changes has proposed that the UN should adopt the responsibility to protect in cases of genocide and other large-scale killing, ethnic cleansing or serious violations of international law, a position endorsed by the Secretary-General.
