Although the \"international community\" of liberal international law and of legal cosmopolitanism for the most part projects a self-assured collective project, this book maintains that it transforms global ethical responsibility into a project of governance, management, and control. Pursuing this argument, and drawing on critical legal literature, critical international relations and on ideas of responsibility and ethical relationality in the work of Jacques Derrida and Judith Butler, the book develops a concept of \"irresponsibility\". This concept is then juxtaposed to the dominant Responsibility to Protect discourse. By exposing and acknowledging \"the sites of irresponsibility\" of the Responsibility to Protect, the book argues that irresponsibility itself can become the condition of ethical responsibility and the possibility of justice.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis original approach to an increasingly important topic will prove invaluable to those working in international law, international relations, politics and legal theory.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Angeliki Samara\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367532824\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367532826\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/29\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.47d","brand":"Angeliki Samara","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44057232343295,"sku":"9780367532826","price":52.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0646b5e5-0db8-4766-b6ed-764334bb2e99.jpg?v=1685045792","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/beyond-the-responsibility-to-protect-angeliki-samara-9780367532826","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
