Professor Milena Sterio spoke on the legality of unilateral humanitarian intervention in the context of Syria, at the Law and Society Annual Meeting in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on May 29.  The title of Professor Sterio’s remarks was: “The (Il)legality of Unilateral Humanitarian Intervention in Syria.”  Professor Sterio’s argument was that unilateral humanitarian intervention in internal conflicts, such as the one in Syria, should be “legalized” under a carefully developed normative framework.  Professor Sterio will be publishing a version of this paper with the Brooklyn Journal of International Law later this year.
