What's the Matter with Selective Intervention

Abstract

Issac Marks Memorial Lecture

Professor Brilmayer challenges Americans to consider whether and under what circumstances selective intervention is morally objectionable. The article suggests that because the Cold War is over, the U.S. can no longer justify its decisions to selectively intervene in world conflicts based on principles of defeating communism. Acknowledging that self-interest may limit U.S. policy choices, the author concludes that when all things are equal, Americans have a moral obligation to apply interventionist principles in a consistent and nonarbitrary manner.
