  In 2011, the United Nations Security Council adopted Resolution 1973, authorizing its member states to take measures to protect Libyan civilians from Muammar Gadhafi's forces. This title traces the relationship between sovereignty and responsibility from the early modern period to the present day, and offers a history with profound implications.
