The inviolability of state sovereignty and the primacy of peace and order have been challenged since WWII through the development of international norms supporting individual rights and justice. This study finds that NATO's bombing campaign of the rump Yugoslavia was legal under international law and indicates a new level of support for the protection of human rights. It also suggests policy options for the U.S. with regard to humanitarian intervention.
