Prilog etici međunarodnog angažmana: pouke američkim mirovnim aktivistima o Balkanu
A contribution to the ethics of international involvement: some lessons on the Balkans for American peace activists

Summary/Abstract: Well-meaning activists from afar wanting to immerse themselves in helping activities in a removed region must arm themselves with two defensive strategies. First, they should get informed on the history of the region as much as possible becoming avid students of recent and more historically removed events of importance. Second, perhaps more difficult, they must make sure they do not fall pray to on going word games that can obscure their overall goal and purpose. This paper is a modest contribution to the latter task. It is an attempt to engage in what might be termed the ethics of international activism by focusing on the interplay between pro-actively describing foreign conflicts and the limitations placed by international law on countries that might want to take strategic advantage from such conflicts.
