O sul global e o desenvolvimento do conceito da responsabilidade de proteger: CIBAS e o caso líbio

Abstract

This thesis looks into the theme of the Responsibility to Protect, an innovative concept adopted by the United Nations in 2005, which redefined the debate on sovereignty and human rights. The goal of this thesis is to understand and analyse which was the participation of Global South countries in the development process of the concept, with special focus on the positions of China, India, Brazil and South Africa – whose initials create the acronym CIBAS –, in the case of the military intervention in Libya, in 2011. It is necessary to understand how the CIBAS have been influencing the debate on the Responsibility to Protect, mainly in their manifestations made in the context of the NATO intervention in Libya, in 2011, given CIBAS’ emerging protagonism in the global governance directions.
