<br/><br/> Foley explores how the doctrine of humanitarian intervention has bee n used to allow states to invade other nations in the name of human rig hts. Drawing on his own experience of working in over a dozen conflict and post-conflict zones, he shows how the growing influence of internat ional law has been used to override the sovereignty of the poorest coun tries in the world.
