Presented By: International Policy Center

Ford Policy Union

Debate on The Responsibility to Protect

Speakers: Edward Luck, Dean, Joan B. Kroc School of Peace Studies, University of San Diego; and Brad Roth, Professor, Law School, Wayne State University.

This Ford Policy Union event will feature a debate on the Responsibility to Protect, a principle emphasizing the responsibility of governments and international actors to protect populations from grave human rights abuses. Edward C. Luck, a former Assistant Secretary-General and Special Adviser to the UN Secretary-General, will argue that the traditional duty of non-intervention among sovereign states must give way to a responsibility to protect populations from grave human rights abuses, by force if necessary. Professor Roth, a noted expert on international law and politics, will argue for the continued relevance of the principles underlying the non-intervention norm.
