R2P(Responsibility to Protect: 保護する責任)とは:

R2P in brief:

従来は国内問題として放置されてきたジェノサイドや民族浄化などの人道危機に対して、当該国の政府が市民を保護しない/できないとき、国際社会は予防・対応・再建を通じて市民を保護する責任を有するという考え方。2001年に国際委員会によって提唱されて以降、国連を中心に決議の採択や加盟国間の議論などを通して普及してきた。他方、軍事介入を容認する根拠となり得るため、国際的に大きな論争になっている。

R2P is the concept that each government has a primary responsibility to protect its populations from serious humanitarian crises such as genocide and ethnic cleansing. In a case where a government is unable and/or unwilling to protect its populations, the international community has a residual responsibility to protect them by preventing and responding to the crises and helping to rebuild the damaged society. Since proposed by the international commission in 2001, R2P has spread mainly in the UN through the adoption of resolutions and discussions among member states. Meanwhile, it can be used as a rationale to invoke military intervention by external actors, and thus has been one of the most controversial issues in international politics.
