授業の概要

This course provides an ethical framework for understanding both the theory and practice of humanitarian intervention. Throughout the course, we will explore key concepts such as pacifism, just war theory, idealism, realism, cosmopolitanism, and communitarianism. We will also examine several real-world cases of humanitarian intervention to connect these theoretical perspectives with practical challenges.
