Spazi umanitari. Ripensare la geografia della politica nell’epoca globale,

One of the most characterizing aspects of the “new” political and legal landscape born from the so called “1989 divide” is the emergence of a form of international political morality based on universal principles that challenge the presumed moral supremacy of territorial boundaries and which favour instead the welfare of humanity generally. Moving from recent theory and practice of “humanitarian interventionism”, this essay aims at discussing some of the main conceptions of “global humanitarian space” elaborated in contemporary debate on the new political and legal order of the “global age”.
