Humanitarian interventions in Sierra Leone
Fojtíková, Jitka ; Střítecký, Vít (advisor) ; Plechanovová, Běla (referee)
This thesis demonstrates the general change of theoretical concept of sovereignty. During the cold war sovereignty was conceived as control over certain territory (authority), after the end of the cold war this concept changed into sovereignty as responsibility (respect for a minimum standard of human rights). With this idea is coincided the concept of non-interference which was changed too and is giving the new and broader extension of humanitarian interventions. These ones should be carried out in cases of serious violations of human rights, what is under responsibility of international community. However, humanitarian interventions are from merits of the case related with limitations; these are lack of unity of international community, economic and geostrategic interests, lack of lead state/ alliance of humanitarian mission and political and economic limitations of interventions. The starting-point for this work is thesis that these limitations were crucial for beginning and duration of intervention UNAMSIL in Sierra Leone.
