Sumario:This article explores the problem addressing the political rationale of the «humanitarian intervention» performed in case of emergency and necessity. The practice of states exhibits the emergence of a new international norm that allows states to perform «humanitarian intervention» in absence of a permissive resolution of the United Nations Security Council.

A rationale in this segment is from an ethical and moral or political realm.
