Aplicação e limites dos princípios da responsabilidade de proteger: uma discussão sobre o caso Coreia do Norte.

Abstract

In a globalized world governed mainly by the idea of the importance of the individual vis-à-vis the institutions, and that as a consequence has developed a concise and widely applied international human rights protection regime, although humanitarian crises are invariably occurring in a number of countries, and among these countries is the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea (or simply North Korea), where several crimes against humanity are carried out. Thus, in order to help combat such situations, the Institute for Responsibility to Protect was created. Thus, the present work aims to analyze the Responsibility to Protect (R2P), bypassing its concept, origin, influences and limits, where it is inserted the identification and development of ideas of sovereignty, responsibility of States, principles and implementation processes to mark it with the results of both the United Nations (UN) report and private sources, especially journalistic or biographical books in the interest of finding support for its application. There are also questions on the historical development of human rights and the reservation of interest of States (as an international community subject to the duty to protect), which in this case is the greatest obstacle to the application of the R2P principles. From the point of view of Human Rights as an International Regime, as well as the concept of R2P, testimonies are presented that attempt to show the quantity and quality of crimes committed against humanity by North Korea in view of its population , through which it was concluded that geopolitical issues still remain a barrier and that, above all, the country's self-protection policy is still a challenge for the international community to successfully implement the Responsibility to Protect
