| Abstract | This article explores the moral and legal problems raised by the recent experiments of the world community with using some kind of military force to come to the rescue of those whose human rights have been abused - "humanitarian intervention." It examines a variety of ethical principles in the Bahá'í writings that bear on these problems. It then investigates how these principles might assist us to discover and implement practical measures to reform existing international law to better protect all members of the human family. |
