Global Politics and the Responsibility to Protect: From Words to Deeds: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Global Politics and the Responsibility to Protect: From Words to Deeds" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This book provides an in-depth introduction to, and analysis of, the issues relating to the implementation of the recent Responsibility to Protect principle in international relations

The Responsibility to Protect (RtoP) has come a long way in a short space of time. It was endorsed by the General Assembly of the UN in 2005, and unanimously reaffirmed by the Security Council in 2006 (Resolution 1674) and 2009 (Resolution 1894). UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has identified the challenge of implementing RtoP as one of the cornerstones of his Secretary-Generalship. The principle has also become part of the working language of international engagement with humanitarian crises and has been debated in relation to almost every recent international crisis including Sudan, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Georgia, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Darfur and Somalia.

Concentrating mainly on implementation challenges including the prevention of genocide and mass atrocities, strengthening the UNs capacity to respond, and the role of regional organizations, this book introducing readers to contemporary debates on R2P and provides the first book-length analysis of the implementation agenda.

The book will be of great interest to students of the responsibility to protect, humanitarian intervention, human rights, foreign policy, security studies and IR and politics in general.

Acknowledgements
This book is the culmination of many years work on the Responsibility to Protect, some of it with extremely able collaborators. My wife, colleague, and best friend Sara Davies helped write on regional arrangements and has played a pivotal part in everything Ive done on this topic. In addition to co-writing a chapter in this book, she read the entire manuscript and offered sage advice. She also played the leading role in establishing the journal Global Responsibility to Protect and the book series of which this volume is a part. She is a talented scholar, wonderful wife and the best mum that our little boy Isaac could hope for. She has my unlimited and unending love and gratitude.
For more than a decade now, Ive also benefited from the wisdom of my dear friend and colleague, Paul Williams, whose scholarship I admire and friendship I treasure. This book draws on a lot of the research and ideas that we have developed together in the past few years, especially relating to peace operations, the protection of civilians, and the question of moral hazard. Pauls influence can be seen on every page.
While all errors of fact and judgment are of course my own, the ideas in this book have benefited immensely from road-testing and the wise insights and advice of a number of people. Thanks here to Mely Caballero-Anthony, Sapna Chhatpar, Gareth Evans, Paul Evans, Brian Job, Herman Kraft, Edward Luck, Monica Serrano, Rizal Sukma, Ramesh Thakur, Thomas Weiss, Nicholas Wheeler, and Lawrence Woocher.
Finally, I owe a debt of gratitude to my former colleagues at the Asia-Pacific Centre for the Responsibility to Protect and to the students that I have worked with on all things RtoP, especially Noel Morada, Sarah Teitt, Stephen Mcloughlin, Luke Glanville, Jess Gifkins, Catherine Drummond, Deborah Mayersen and Annie Pohlman and the indefatigable and always helpful Marie Hobman.
