Abstract: The following paper will examine if international law has influenced, either for the better or worse, the conflict in Syria as well as the country’s economic situation. We shall analyse how the Responsibility to Protect Principle (R2P) has affected events in the area, if at all. The predecessor of R2P, humanitarian intervention, with its “right to intervene”, has been quite controversial and inefficient.
