An Emergency Response System for the International Community: Commentary on The Politics of Rescue [Abstract]

December 4, 1997
Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the international system in place
since the end of World War II has been struggling to find answers to new
problems and questions of international responsibility. In his response to "The
Politics of Rescue," Winston argues that the real dilemma facing the
international system is not a question of what form intervention will take, but
rather a question of the existence of political will to act on the humanitarian
impulse. While acknowledging the political ramifications of intervention, he
argues that once a state can no longer care for its people, the responsibility
falls to the international community, with the goal of intervention being the
restoration of state capacity. Winston calls for the establishment of the
international equivalent of a 911 emergency call number to provide an
institutionalized response to such crises, with the risks and costs shared
equally among the international community.
