From stopping to preventing atrocities
The Constitutive Act of the African Union (AU) provides for the right of the continental body to intervene in the face of war crimes, genocide and crimes against humanity.

The question of how to determine the 'deterioration' threshold after which a situation ceases to be a matter essentially within the domestic jurisdiction of a state has not yet been settled. The various thresholds for intervention in article 4(h) are subjective given that the justice of warfare is such that one side's hero…
