Somalia: From the Errors of Colonialism to the Horrors of War
2012
Chapter 5 analyses the reality of the Republic of Somalia, a country which is currently facing the worst humanitarian crisis in history. The first descriptive part of the article shows how the current human catastrophe devastating the Somali people is the result of the incomprehensible de-composition of one of the most homogenous peoples in Africa, not only ethnically speaking, but also from a linguistic, religious and cultural point of view. This de-composition, which has led to Somalia being known as the “State without State”, is undoubtedly rooted in the errors and horrors suffered, in the first place, during the successive processes of colonization and de-colonisation, but also during t…

In a context of greater influence of the US and its Western allies over the decision-making process of the most important multilateral institutions, the UN above all, the interpretation allowing intrusive practices by the Security Council promoted by the Western permanent members has clashed with the defense of sovereignty promoted by Russia and China.

Intervención en Libia: La responsabilidad de proteger a debate
2011
Resumen El trabajo analiza el origen y evolución del concepto de la responsabilidad de proteger, sus antecedentes en la década de los noventa del S. XX, su formulación en el Informe sobre La responsabilidad de proteger, y su consolidación posterior con especial atención al Documento Final de la Cumbre de 2005. Se examina asimismo el modo en que se ha aplicado esta norma emergente en la Resolución 1973 del Consejo de Seguridad, de 17 de marzo de 2011, que ha autorizado el uso de la fuerza en Libia. Y se concluye que casi todas las limitaciones y objeciones que se están planteando en relación con esta intervención, probablemente son consustanciales al modo en que actualmente se ponen en prác…
