| dc.description.abstract | The following research report is an analysis of the humanitarian intervention mission in East Timor in 1999. This research aims to aid our understanding of a successful case of humanitarian intervention and how it can be used to assist in modifying the current norm of R2P that is morally sound but is flawed in practice resulting in the worsening of already dire humanitarian crises. The research is specific to cases of self-determination, independence, and secession with humanitarian intervention being the vector for positive regime change. One of the important findings that the research yields is this idea of consent, which goes against the orthodox understanding of intervention but seems to be the strongest link to success in East Timor. | |
