Global Responsibility to Protect

Global Responsibility to Protect (GR2P) is the premier journal for the study and practice of the responsibility to protect (R2P). This journal seeks to publish the best and latest research on atrocity prevention and human protection. This includes research on the development of cognate norms in global politics, their operationalisation through the work of governments, international and regional organisations and NGOs, and finally, the relationship and applicability these ideas and frameworks to past and present cases of genocide and mass atrocities including the global response to those cases. Global Responsibility to Protect promotes a universal understanding of R2P and efforts to realise it, through encouraging critical debate and diversity of opinion, and to acquaint a broad readership of scholars, practitioners, students and analysts with the principle and its operationalisation. Global Responsibility to Protect serves as a repository for lessons learned and analysis of best practices on the prevention of armed conflict, genocide and mass atrocities, and human protection. It also publishes on related themes such as human rights, global governance, diplomacy, the law and ethics of armed conflict, and humanitarianism. Global Responsibility to Protect seeks insights and approaches from every region of the world that might contribute to understanding, operationalising and applying R2P in practice.
