Through four case studies, it sheds new light on the international law debate and the political theory on intervention, linking them to ongoing issues, and paying particular attention to the lesser known Russian dimension. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book begins by tracing the genealogy of the idea of humanitarian intervention to the Renaissance, evaluating the Eurocentric gaze of the civilisation-barbarity dichotomy, and elucidates the international legal arguments of both advocates and opponents of intervention, as well as the views of major political theorists. It then goes on to examine four cases as humanitarian interventions: the Greek War of Independence (1821-31), the Lebanon and Syria (1860-61), the Bulgarian atrocities (1876-78), and the U.S. intervention in Cuba (1895-98). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHumanitarian intervention in the long nineteenth century will be of benefit to scholars and students of International Relations, international history, international law and international political theory. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAn electronic edition of this book is freely available under a Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-ND) licence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alexis Heraclides,Ada Dialla\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1526133822\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526133823\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/19\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.90d","brand":"Alexis Heraclides","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48485552914687,"sku":"9781526133823","price":45.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c3e45b25-4eda-465f-aa66-3f927a42092e.jpg?v=1778050023","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/humanitarian-intervention-in-the-long-alexis-heraclides-9781526133823","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
