Description

This pro case argues that regime-changing force can be justified when it is lawful, collective, and necessary to stop grave authoritarian harms. Using Kınacıoğlu’s legal-internationalist framework, the case focuses on the UN Security Council, sovereignty, human rights, collective security, and the Responsibility to Protect. It gives pro a restrained, highly defensible path: reject unilateral regime-change wars while defending Security Council-backed intervention against repression, mass killing, or threats to peace. This case works well for judges concerned with both human rights and international order.
