چکیده
هدف این مقاله بحث در مورد پیامدهای حقوقی توسل به‌زور توسط آمریکا علیه سوریه در سال 2013 و دیگر مسائل مختلف حقوقی مرتبط با درگیری‌ها در سوریه است. ایالات متحده معتقد است استفاده از سلاح‌های شیمیایی در سوریه باعث ایجاد بحران انسانی شده و در نتیجه بر اساس اصل مداخلة بشردوستانۀ مسئولیت حمایت، اقدام نظامی توجیه‌پذیر خواهد بود.پرسش کلیدی نیز پس از حمله شیمیایی در سوریه بر این پایه استوار است که آیا اقدام نظامی احتمالیِ ایالات متحده علیه سوریه در قالب حقوق بین‌الملل قابل توجیه است؟ بر همین اساس، در اینجابحث و گفتگو بر مشروعیت مداخله بشردوستانه در درگیری‌های مسلحانه غیربین‌المللی متمرکز شده و همچنین استدلال‌هایی که در قلمرو آموزۀ مسئولیتحمایت مطرح می‌شود. اما به‌واقع ما بحث را چنین پی خواهیم گرفت که ایالات متحده چه استدلال‌هایی برای توجیه عمل خود می‌تواند اقامه کند؟ چه استدلال‌هایی در رد کردن توجیه آمریکا و غیرقانونی دانستن عمل وی وجود دارد؟ رویکردهای نظری و عملی به حقوق بین‌الملل پاسخ‌های متفاوتی به این سؤال می‌دهند.

Abstract
The purpose of this article is to discuss the legal implications of the use of force by the U.S. against Syria in 2013, and various other legal issues relevant to the conflict in Syria. The U.S. believes that the use of chemical weapons worsens the humanitarian crisis in Syria, and therefore humanitarian intervention under Responsibility to Protect is justified. The key question after the chemical attack in Syria is that the military action by the U.S. against Syria can be justified in terms of international law? The more important question is whether anything about the use of chemical weapons provides a distinct legal ground for action. Because of this, discussion focused on the legality of humanitarian intervention in non-international armed conflicts as well as the arguments surrounding the responsibility to protect. But in this debate, we argue thaht what are the arguments that the United States can make in favor of the international legality of such action, and what are the arguments against? Formalist and pragmatic approaches to international law provide very different answers.
