Humanitarian intervention and critical theory in brazil: inhibitions and radical alternatives to the Liberal Peace paradigm

The low penetration in laubade 1973 Brazil of critical theories regarding humanitarian interventionism reflects itself in the scarcity of academic works able to put into question the United Nations Mission for the Stabilization of Haiti (Minustah).This article aims at filling part of those gaps by presenting a range of theoretical tools available elsewhere, in parallel to observations made during field-work done domeless quartz nails in Haiti.The objective is to overcome the inhibitions that radical objections to the so-called Liberal Peace currently face so as to open a path for a Brazilian critical theorizing that might go beyond the ones already available at the Anglo-Saxon academic world.
