HUMANITARIAN INTERVENTION: AN ARGUMENTATATIVE ESSAY


Humanitarian military intervention has often been demanded in history with super powers being blamed for not intervening sooner. There have also been instances of intervention on the pretext of humanitarian aid. Do your research and decide where you stand and to what extent you support humanitarian intervention. Refer to my second blog, The Essay Archive, for sample essays: https://theessayarchive.blogspot.com.tr/  
Note to the student: there are some brilliant videos on the topic, one posted by The University of Chicago and another by Noam Chomsky but they were deemed too difficult for teaching purposes. You are welcome to check them out if you wish.
