Analysis of International Relations Series: Historical Case Studies of Humanitarian Interventions

Foreword 


In the realm of International Relations where conflict, displacement, and natural disasters shape our ever-changing landscape, a nuanced understanding of humanitarian action is paramount. In the series "Analysis of International Relations," the reader will embark on a journey to unravel the multifaceted dimensions of humanitarianism.     


From delving into introductory notions and concepts to dissecting ethical considerations and legal frameworks, this series offers a nuanced understanding of humanitarian interventions. Each article examines key aspects such as the historical evolution of interventions, the role of anthropology in shaping humanitarian practices, and the diverse typologies of approaches to intervention, including sovereigntist, pacifist, and human rights-based perspectives.     


Furthermore, readers will grapple with the ethical dilemmas inherent in humanitarian interventions, exploring questions of impartiality, consent, and the unintended consequences of aid. The legal frameworks underpinning interventions, as well as the roles of international organizations like the United Nations and NATO, are scrutinized to evaluate their effectiveness and challenges in coordinating and implementing humanitarian efforts.     


Historical case studies, including pivotal moments in Bosnia, Rwanda, and Kosovo, provide valuable insights into the successes, failures, and lessons learned from past interventions, shedding light on their impact on international relations. Moreover, readers will confront present and future trends and challenges in humanitarian interventions, from the implications of new technologies to the complexities of climate change and the rise of non-state actors.     


Ultimately, this series aims to equip readers with the analytical skills necessary to navigate the complexities of humanitarian interventions within the broader context of international relations. As we explore the intricacies of global humanitarian action, may these insights inspire thoughtful reflection on the importance of compassion, solidarity, justice, and collective action in the face of adversity.     


This series is divided into eight articles, including:

Historical Case Studies of Humanitarian Interventions

     

Humanitarian interventions have played pivotal roles in global politics, often sparking debates about the balance between sovereignty, moral responsibility, and international law. Over the years, several key interventions have shaped our understanding of when and how the international community can or should intervene in a sovereign state to prevent atrocities. This article examines some of the most significant historical case studies of humanitarian interventions. 


1. India's Intervention in East Pakistan (1971) 

The crisis that precipitated India’s intervention was rooted in long-standing sociopolitical and economic disparities between East and West Pakistan. East Pakistan, which is now Bangladesh, had long been marginalized by the central government in West Pakistan. The situation reached a breaking point following the 1970 national elections, in which the Awami League, led by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, won a significant mandate for increased autonomy. However, the refusal of the ruling Pakistan People's Party (PPP) in West Pakistan to recognize these results led to escalating tensions and the eventual brutal crackdown by the military junta under President Yahya Khan (Cordera, 2015). Operation Searchlight, initiated by the Pakistani military in March 1971, aimed to suppress the independence movement but instead led to widespread atrocities, including mass killings and the displacement of approximately ten million people who fled to neighboring India. This humanitarian disaster forced India to reconsider its stance and respond to the unfolding crisis (Cordera, 2015). 


India’s military intervention in East Pakistan was officially framed as a humanitarian response to the dire conditions faced by the Bengali population. The Indian government, led by Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, initially maintained a position of neutrality but increasingly criticized the Pakistani military's actions as genocidal. Despite a public stance of non-interference, India covertly supported the Mukti Bahini, the East Pakistani liberation forces, with training and logistical support (Marwah, 1979). The intervention, which began in December 1971, was swift and decisive. India deployed around half a million troops, leading to the surrender of Pakistani forces in East Pakistan by December 15, 1971, and the subsequent creation of the independent state of Bangladesh (Marwah, 1979). This military action was not only effective in addressing the immediate humanitarian crisis but also had significant geopolitical repercussions.

The creation of Bangladesh altered the regional balance of power in South Asia. The intervention significantly weakened Pakistan’s strategic capabilities and enhanced India’s regional dominance. This shift had immediate effects on India’s internal stability and its relations with neighboring states. While the intervention solidified India’s strategic position and demonstrated its military prowess, it also incurred substantial financial costs estimated at over two billion dollars and drew considerable international criticism (Marwah, 1979). The intervention's success in alleviating the humanitarian crisis was accompanied by complex geopolitical ramifications. India’s actions were scrutinized by the international community, which debated the legitimacy of intervening in another country’s internal affairs. The crisis highlighted the tension between state sovereignty and the international community’s responsibility to protect human rights (Cordera, 2015). 


The 1971 East Pakistani crisis underscores several critical lessons for humanitarian intervention: 


  1. Realpolitik vs. Humanitarianism: India’s intervention was driven by both humanitarian concerns and strategic interests. While the immediate humanitarian impact was significant, the realpolitik dimension—aiming to weaken a regional rival and influence the balance of power—played a crucial role in shaping India’s actions (Cordera, 2015). 

  2. The Role of the International Community: The failure of international mechanisms, such as the United Nations, to address the crisis highlights the limitations of the global system in preventing or mitigating large-scale humanitarian crises. This underscores the need for more robust and impartial international intervention mechanisms (Cordera, 2015). 

  3. State Sovereignty vs. Human Rights: The intervention illustrated the tension between respecting state sovereignty and the international community’s responsibility to uphold human rights. The case suggests a need for reforms to strengthen the concept of the Responsibility to Protect (R2P), ensuring timely and effective responses to prevent atrocities (Marwah, 1979). 


India’s intervention in East Pakistan exemplifies the complexities inherent in humanitarian intervention. It demonstrates how humanitarian motives can intersect with strategic interests and how such actions can have profound and lasting impacts on regional dynamics and international relations. As debates continue about the ethics and efficacy of humanitarian intervention, the 1971 conflict remains a crucial case study in balancing moral imperatives with geopolitical realities.

2. Vietnam's Intervention in Cambodia (1978-1979) 

Vietnam's intervention in Cambodia during the late 1970s and early 1980s is a significant case study in the complexities of humanitarian intervention and international diplomacy. The roots of this intervention lie in the devastating impact of the Khmer Rouge regime, which governed Cambodia from 1975 to 1979, leading to a catastrophic humanitarian crisis (Hervouet, 1990). The Khmer Rouge, led by Pol Pot, implemented radical communist policies that resulted in the deaths of an estimated 1.7 million Cambodians, contributing to severe instability and humanitarian distress (Hervouet, 1990). By late 1978, the situation had deteriorated significantly. The Khmer Rouge's aggression extended beyond Cambodia's borders, affecting Vietnam, which had long been troubled by the Khmer Rouge’s incursions and support for anti-Vietnamese factions. In response, Vietnam, led by the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV), launched a military invasion on December 25, 1978, aiming to overthrow the Khmer Rouge and install a more favorable government (Hervouet, 1990). 


The international community's reaction to Vietnam's intervention was mixed. The Soviet Union and its allies generally supported the intervention, viewing it as a necessary action to halt the Khmer Rouge's atrocities and stabilize the region (Hervouet, 1990). In contrast, China and Western nations, particularly the United States and ASEAN countries, condemned the intervention. China perceived it as an extension of Vietnamese expansionism and responded with military action along the Vietnamese border in early 1979 (Hervouet, 1990). The Cold War context further complicated the situation, with Vietnam's actions being interpreted through the lens of Soviet-Chinese rivalries. The ongoing conflict spurred increased diplomatic efforts to resolve the situation.


The late 1980s and early 1990s witnessed a surge in diplomatic activity, largely influenced by the shifting geopolitical landscape. Mikhail Gorbachev's rise to Soviet leadership in 1985 and his subsequent reforms contributed to a thaw in Sino-Soviet relations, impacting the Cambodian conflict (Hervouet, 1990). Both China and the Soviet Union began pressuring their allies to seek a negotiated settlement. The 1987 Jakarta Informal Meeting and subsequent negotiations focused on several key issues, including the withdrawal of Vietnamese troops, the establishment of a transitional government, and preparations for democratic elections. The culmination of these efforts was the signing of the Paris Peace Agreements in 1991, which involved all major Cambodian factions and laid the groundwork for a peaceful transition, including a United Nations-supervised election (Hervouet, 1990).

Following the Paris Agreement, the United Nations Transitional Authority in Cambodia (UNTAC) was established to oversee the transition to democracy and ensure a fair electoral process (Amer, 2010). UNTAC’s mandate included organizing Cambodia's first general elections in May 1993. However, the period was marred by persistent violence against the ethnic Vietnamese population in Cambodia. The treatment of ethnic Vietnamese became a contentious issue, with debates over electoral laws and ongoing violence that led to significant tensions between Cambodia, Vietnam, and UNTAC (Amer, 2010). The violence against ethnic Vietnamese, including attacks that resulted in approximately 21,000 individuals seeking refuge in Vietnam, underscored the challenges faced by UNTAC in achieving peace and stability. Despite UNTAC's efforts, ethnic tensions and sporadic violence persisted, complicating the post-conflict transition (Amer, 2010). 


After the elections and the formation of a coalition government in Cambodia, relations between Cambodia and Vietnam shifted to address bilateral issues such as territorial disputes and the status of ethnic Vietnamese (Amer, 2010). The 2005 Supplementary Treaty marked progress in resolving land border disputes, and high-level visits and continued dialogue aimed to strengthen bilateral relations. The focus shifted towards economic cooperation and regional stability, reflecting a move towards a more cooperative phase in Cambodia-Vietnam relations (Amer, 2010). 


Vietnam's intervention in Cambodia remains a critical case study in humanitarian intervention and international diplomacy. While the intervention successfully ended the Khmer Rouge's brutal regime and initiated a process toward peace, it also entrenched Vietnam's military presence in Cambodia and contributed to regional tensions. The subsequent peacekeeping period, marked by UNTAC's efforts and challenges, set the stage for Cambodia's transition to democracy and ongoing bilateral negotiations between Cambodia and Vietnam. The legacy of this intervention highlights the complexities of regional interventions, Cold War geopolitics, and post-conflict reconciliation (Hervouet, 1990; Amer, 2010).

3. The Rwandan Genocide (1994)

 

The Rwandan genocide, a horrific episode in 1994, resulted in the mass murder of approximately 800,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus over just 100 days. This tragedy remains a sobering example of how ethnic tensions can lead to catastrophic violence and underscores the complexities faced by international actors in responding to such crises. 


Mahmood Mamdani’s When Victims Become Killers offers a profound analysis of the genocide’s origins, emphasizing the role of colonial legacies and political manipulation. Mamdani (2020) argues that the genocide must be viewed through the lens of Rwanda's colonial history, where Belgian authorities exacerbated ethnic divisions by favoring the Tutsi minority over the Hutu majority. This favoritism institutionalized ethnic hierarchies and sowed the seeds of future conflict (Mamdani, 2020). Mamdani further explores how post-colonial politics failed to resolve these tensions. The shift from Tutsi to Hutu dominance did not alleviate underlying grievances but instead fostered new forms of exclusion and resentment (Mamdani, 2020). The genocide, therefore, was not merely an ethnic clash but a strategic move by the ruling Hutu elite to consolidate power amidst political and economic instability (Mamdani, 2020). 


Linda Melvern (2024) critically examines the international response to the genocide, focusing on the failures of Western countries and the United Nations. Melvern highlights the international community’s indifference and the ineffectiveness of its interventions. Despite early warnings and clear evidence of impending violence, significant intervention was lacking (Melvern, 2024). France’s involvement is another critical aspect of Melvern’s analysis. French military support to the Rwandan government during the genocide is seen as prolonging the conflict and enabling the regime to maintain power longer than it might have otherwise (Melvern, 2024). The UN mission, despite its presence, was hampered by a restrictive mandate and insufficient resources, failing to act decisively when the genocide began (Melvern, 2024). This highlights a major failure of international justice and humanitarian responsibility.

The experiences from Rwanda underscore several critical lessons for future humanitarian interventions:


  1. Balancing Justice and Reconciliation: Effective post-conflict justice requires a balance between retributive and restorative approaches. While accountability is crucial, it must be coupled with efforts to address the broader needs of victims and foster community healing (Clark, 2009). 

  2. Inclusivity and Local Context: Interventions should be inclusive and sensitive to local contexts. Ensuring that justice mechanisms are accessible and relevant to affected populations can enhance their effectiveness and promote societal engagement (Clark, 2009). 

  3. Comprehensive Approaches: Combining formal legal mechanisms with community-based processes offers a more holistic solution. This approach should consider the diverse needs of victims, the complexities of the conflict, and the importance of long-term reconciliation (Clark, 2009). 


The Rwandan genocide and subsequent humanitarian efforts highlight both the enormity of the challenges faced and the progress made in addressing mass atrocities. By learning from these experiences, the international community can develop more effective strategies for post-conflict justice and reconciliation, ultimately contributing to the prevention of future tragedies.

4. NATO's Intervention in Kosovo (1999) 

The Kosovo crisis, which erupted in the late 1990s, represented a severe humanitarian catastrophe. The province's population consists largely of ethnic Albanians who seek independence or unification with Albania, while the Serb minority has faced discrimination and conflict with Albanian extremists (Chawla, 2000). By 1998, open conflict between Serbian forces and Kosovar Albanians resulted in widespread violence, including the displacement of over 1.5 million people, with nearly a million fleeing Kosovo (Chawla, 2000). 


The European Atlantic Disaster Response Coordination Centre (EADRCC), established by NATO, played a vital role in coordinating relief efforts. The EADRCC worked closely with UNHCR to manage the airlift of supplies, ease pressure on neighboring countries, and set up refugee camps (Chawla, 2000). Operation Allied Harbour, which began on April 15, 1999, was NATO's first operation specifically focused on humanitarian relief. It involved coordination among NATO and non-NATO nations to support the Albanian government and UNHCR in addressing the refugee crisis (Chawla, 2000). NATO's air campaign, while effective in degrading Yugoslav military capabilities, resulted in significant civilian casualties and economic damage. Critics argue that the campaign's targeting strategy, which avoided land forces to minimize NATO casualties, led to indiscriminate damage and failed to fully address the humanitarian crisis (Chawla, 2000). The legal basis for the intervention was also questioned, as the air strikes were conducted without explicit UN Security Council authorization and raised concerns about the violation of international laws (Chawla, 2000). 

Figure 7. A bombed Kosovan village (Amarcord, M., 1999)

The legal dimensions of NATO's intervention in Kosovo are scrutinized through various international legal frameworks. Article 2(4) of the UN Charter generally prohibits the use of force in international relations, except in cases of self-defense or actions authorized by the UN Security Council under Chapter VII (Greenwood, 2000). The intervention in Kosovo did not fall within these traditional exceptions as Kosovo was not a sovereign state, and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia’s (FRY) actions did not constitute an armed attack on another state (Greenwood, 2000). Nevertheless, Security Council Resolutions 1160, 1199, and 1203 condemned the FRY's actions and recognized the crisis in Kosovo as a threat to international peace and security but stopped short of authorizing military action (Greenwood, 2000). This context sets a backdrop for NATO’s actions, which are framed as humanitarian interventions.  


The conduct of NATO’s intervention was also scrutinized under international humanitarian law. According to Greenwood (2000), the principles of proportionality and distinction are critical in determining the legality of military actions. NATO claimed adherence to these principles, targeting military objectives while attempting to minimize civilian casualties (Greenwood, 2000). However, the intervention resulted in collateral damage, including civilian casualties and damage to infrastructure, which NATO argued were incidental to its military objectives (Greenwood, 2000). The International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) found no deliberate targeting of civilians, although mistakes did occur (Greenwood, 2000). 


The Kosovo intervention underscores the challenges of integrating fundamental values into international legitimacy and peacebuilding. Despite the successes of the intervention, including the return of refugees and the stabilization of the region, the security situation in Kosovo remained volatile. Violence against minority communities persisted, and NATO’s intervention faced criticism for its inability to fully prevent the humanitarian disaster and for the ethical and legal implications of its actions (Chawla, 2000). The intervention was framed within liberal values, emphasizing human rights and democratic principles (Shinoda, 2000). However, critics argue that the focus on immediate humanitarian needs sometimes overshadows long-term goals of sustainable peace and stability (Shinoda, 2000). The mixed results of the intervention highlight the difficulties in aligning short-term military actions with the pursuit of positive peace. This concept encompasses not just the cessation of conflict but also the promotion of social justice and human rights (Shinoda, 2000).

5. Indian Ocean "Boxing Day" Tsunami (2004) 

The Sri Lankan population is divided historically into different ethnic and religious factions, which also separates the country geographically. According to the 2001 Department of Census and Statistics, in 2002, Sri Lanka’s ethnic composition was as follows: 74% Sinhalese (primarily Buddhist), 18% Tamil (primarily Hindu), and 7% Muslim (Kuhn, 2009). After the independence from Great Britain in 1948, the Tamil population was gradually marginalized, accelerated by the abolition of all minority rights. In contrast, the historically discriminated Sinhalese majority was now experiencing various economic and social advantages. These factors led to the formation of the LTTE insurgent movement. Shortly after the LTTE emerged, the Sri Lankan military forces began their armed fight against them (Stokke, 1998). The conflict caused the deaths of more than 70,000 people and the displacement of between 500,000 and 1,000,000 (Lund & Blaikie, 2010). At the time of the tsunami, the Sri Lankan government had been battling the LTTE for more than 25 years. Thus, Sri Lanka was facing a double burden: a natural disaster and a "terrorist problem" (Choi, 2015). 


The tsunami affected all of Sri Lanka’s 14 coastal districts. The official death toll was 31,000, with around one million people (5% of the total population) directly affected by the tsunami and 180,000 (about 1% of the population) displaced temporarily or permanently (Kuhn, 2009). The impact on death tolls and housing damages was highest in the mixed Tamil and Muslim areas of the Eastern Provinces, which directly faced the source of the wave in Sumatra (Kuhn, 2009). Part of the problem was due to earlier "development" policies and strategies, which exposed some communities to a greater risk of natural disasters—as was the case for poor people living in "shanty towns," who lived close to the shore for subsistence fishing purposes (Nadarajah & Mulligan, 2011).  

Figure 9. Phuket, Thailand, moments after the Indian Ocean Tsunami ravaged Southern Asia (Trupp, S./AP Photo/STAR MAX, 2004)

The burdens faced by the Tamil population following the tsunami - which were not random, but a result of discriminatory policies pursued by the government and differential treatment coming from aid agencies - left the Tamil communities even more vulnerable (Kuhn, 2009). Research on the case has identified a total of 137 substantiated vulnerability insights, with some 75% of them emerging during the recovery, with the external intervention being the most dominating driving factor (Larsen et al., 2009). That is because, in the aftermath of the tsunami, foreign assistance efforts placed considerable emphasis on the less heavily affected communities in the Southern Province, at the expense of more heavily affected areas of the Eastern Province (Kuhn, 2009). 


Overall, Sri Lanka (and the East in particular) was heavily affected by the Indian Ocean “Boxing Day” Tsunami in December 2004. The post-disaster reconstruction and various international responses brought to light new arenas of conflict fueled by different agendas of the actors involved in the stabilization process, as the crisis and subsequent relief and recovery efforts also overlapped with the ongoing civil war.

6. NATO's Intervention in Libya (2011)  

The humanitarian intervention in Libya in 2011 was a pivotal moment in international relations, driven by the crisis in Benghazi and the threat posed by Muammar Gaddafi's regime. The UN Security Council's Resolution 1973, adopted on March 17, 2011, was a crucial step, in establishing a no-fly zone and authorizing “all necessary measures” to protect civilians (Adler-Nissen & Pouliot, 2014). This resolution spurred immediate action, with a coalition led by France, Britain, and the US launching Operation Odyssey Dawn shortly thereafter. 


The intervention faced significant challenges. NATO members were initially divided over their involvement. While the UK advocated for a clear framework known as the Leslie Criteria to guide intervention, France opposed NATO taking full command, viewing it as a purely military entity, and Turkey sought a more humanitarian approach (Adler-Nissen & Pouliot, 2014). The formation of the Libya Contact Group by the UK and France aimed to balance military and political dimensions, but the EU's role remained largely symbolic.   


The BRICS countries—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—played a crucial role in the UNSC during the intervention. Their stance reflected shifting power dynamics within the Council. The BRICS sought to challenge the P3 (France, the UK, and the US), arguing that NATO operations exceeded the mandate of Resolution 1973 and took sides in Libya’s internal conflict (Adler-Nissen & Pouliot, 2014). Russia and China, historically skeptical of Western interventions, led the opposition, claiming the intervention violated the resolution’s intent. Brazil and India also expressed concerns, arguing that military actions exacerbated civilian casualties. Despite their objections, the BRICS could not alter the course of the intervention, highlighting the limitations of diplomatic competence against entrenched power structures and operational realities (Adler-Nissen & Pouliot, 2014). 

Figure 11. Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi waving to supporters in his compound of Bab Al Azizia in Tripoli after a meeting seeking to mediate in Libya’s conflict (Larbi, L./Reuters, 2011)

The intervention's objectives quickly shifted from humanitarian protection to regime change. NATO’s operations, initially aimed at protecting civilians, began targeting retreating Libyan troops and Gaddafi’s hometown of Sirte, which did not directly threaten civilians (Kuperman, 2013). This shift contributed to an extended conflict and exacerbated the humanitarian crisis. The support for rebel forces prolonged the civil war, increasing civilian casualties and destabilizing Libya further. The aftermath saw the rise of tribal and Islamist militias, leading to widespread abuses and a fractured government (Kuperman, 2013).  


The intervention in Libya has profound implications for international relations. It underscores the importance of accurate situational awareness and the risks of escalating conflict rather than mitigating it. NATO’s shift from humanitarian protection to regime change highlights the tendency for humanitarian missions to evolve into broader political agendas, often hindering peace negotiations (Kuperman, 2013). The intervention also demonstrated the broader impact on regional stability, with consequences extending to neighboring countries like Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso, and potentially influencing the conflict in Syria. In summary, while the intervention in Libya began with humanitarian intent, its evolution into a regime change operation and the resulting prolonged conflict underscore the intricate balance required in international interventions. Future efforts must carefully navigate these dynamics to avoid exacerbating crises rather than alleviating them.

Conclusion 

These case studies illustrate the diverse outcomes and challenges associated with humanitarian interventions. While some interventions, like the one in Kosovo, are often viewed as successful in achieving their humanitarian objectives, others, like Libya, show the potential for long-term instability. The failure to intervene in Rwanda, meanwhile, underscores the moral imperative for timely action in the face of mass atrocities. Humanitarian interventions remain a contentious issue in international relations. Balancing the need to prevent human suffering with respect for state sovereignty and the potential consequences of intervention continues to challenge the international community. As these historical cases show, each intervention carries its own set of moral, legal, and practical dilemmas that must be carefully considered. 


As we conclude this series on Analysis of International Relations, it is crucial to look to the present and future of humanitarian interventions. The next and final article will do so by analyzing present and future trends and challenges in humanitarian interventions.
