Albright Sees An End to Intervention
June 11th, 2008 by Sarah
Madeline Albright writes in the NYTimes of some grim realities. “Totalitarian governments are alive and well; their neighbors are reluctant to pressure them to change; and the notion of national sovereignty as sacred is gaining ground, helped in no small part by the disastrous results of the American invasion of Iraq.”
Ultimately, she asks “Is [an international system] just a collection of legal nuts and bolts cobbled together by governments to protect governments? Or is it a living framework of rules intended to make the world a more humane place?”
