Femdagarskriget 2008- Georgiens rättfärdiga krig? : En kvalitativ innehållsanalys som analyserar huruvida Georgien gick in i krig i Sydossetien med rättfärdiga skäl i enlighet med teorin om Jus ad Bellum. / The five-day-war 2008- Georgia´s just war? : A qualitative content analysis which analyzes whether or not Georgia can be considered to have had legitimate reasons for involvement in the war in South Ossetia in August of 2008.Reuterström, Amanda January 2018 (has links)
The aim this thesis is to analyse whether or not Georgia can be considered to have had legitimate reasons for involvement in the five-day war in South Ossetia in August of 2008. This topic is relevant today for two predominant reasons one being that August of 2018 marks the 10th anniversary of the outbreak of the war between Georgian, Russian and South Ossetian forces. Who’s to blame for the outbreak of the war has, in the last decade, been widely discussed and analysed from different standpoints. This thesis’ main intention is to evaluate the Georgian point of view and find out Georgia’s responsibility for the conflict. This analysis is based on the theoretical framework called “Just War Theory”, an ancient tradition which, through centuries, have set up guidelines over how a war should be initiated, conducted and handled after ceasefire and thereafter. In this theoretical framework there is 6 criteria which establish moral, ethical and legitimate reasons for a state to wage war called “Jus ad bellum”. These 6 criteria are used as the factual theoretical base for the analysis.The condition of the chosen theoretical framework requires that all the criteria needs to be fulfilled in order for a state to be considered to have lawful reasons to wage war against another. Based on this framework, it is concluded in this thesis that Georgia did not have rightful reasons to engage in the five-day war in August 2008.
