The collision of well-intentioned western activists and imperilled activists in the Global South illustrates the hazards of using global “naming and shaming” campaigns to apply pressure to developing nations with the hope of improving human rights practices.
L’administration Obama s’inquiète de la prévention des atrocités de masse surtout lorsque les intérêts américains sont en jeu. Cependant, dans le cas des conflits les plus meurtriers de la planète où les alliés des États-Unis sont les agresseurs, le R2P est rarement ou jamais mentionné ou invoqué.
