«A punta de pistola: Sueños democráticos e intervenciones armadas» is David Rieff's essay, published by Debate in paperback (280 pages, in Spanish).
David Rieff reflects on military intervention in other countries and whether human rights are enough to justify it. Drawing on real conflicts, he analyzes the role of the UN and the West and shows how humanitarian plans can go off the rails. The conclusion is disillusioned: the will to protect does not always match the means.
