Abstract: Driven by fundamental national interests hidden under the garb of universal welfare and protection of human rights. Humanitarian Interventions have become one of the biggest sources of tension, contention and dis-harmony in the international arena. This paper therefore, seeks to understand the nuances of mandated and unmadated interventions, dealing with the dilemma of their legitimacy by attempting to realize the trade-off between protecting rights and guaranteeing sovereignty which comes with its own risks when looked at from a realist perspective. Therefore, the paper seeks to clearly define interventions, lay out a historical analysis, put forth legal and institutional contentions vis-a-vis interventions by looking at roles of international bodies in regulating and governing such intervention and thereafter puts forth a conclusive narrative and value-judgement on humanitarian interventions based on the afore mentioned study
