Keywords: sovereignty; post-imperial order; mission; intervention
Summary/Abstract: The external interventions, particularly the military ones, question the sovereignty of the states involved. From a constructivist viewpoint, the paper is approaching the possibility of considering some of these interventions as expressions of a post- imperial order, as they take place in weak states that formed part of an empire where the initiator was in many cases the very former imperial power. The aim of this article is to investigate the ideological arguments supporting these actions and how they affect the meanings of ‘sovereignty’
