Abstract

The concept of humanitarian intervention has went through massive transformation from neutral action based on need for humanitarian aid to military action oriented to protect civilians. The new concept was put on test in 2011. when Security Council authorized military intervention in Libya. Consequences of that intervention were adverse for Libyan population in general, primarily their general standard of living. Libya owns greatest oil supplies in Africa, and that resource was used by their leader Muammar Gaddafi not just for improving wealth of Libya and Libyans, but also funding african projects. Some of those projects presented direct loss for international holding companies. As more of african projects were expected to be financed by Gaddafi's Libya, with more financial damage to international capital in Africa, this paper analyzes possibility of connection between economic interests in humanitarian intervention that ended with Gaddafi's death.
