Self-Determination and U.S. Support of Insurgents: A Policy-Analysis Model

Abstract

Intervention in support of insurgents and national liberation movements is one of the most difficult and controversial areas of concern both in international law and U. S. national policy. it is an area that has enormous impact on those subjects that matter most to nations: international stability and world order, national security, and the self-determination of peoples. The significance of this broad issue requires care, but also, a sense of urgency in seeking solutions, both within the international community and in our own national policy. For any state actually involved, either as one that decides to intervene or as one that becomes an unwilling host of the insurgents, the insurgency issue becomes all the more critical.
