Abstract
This survey studies patterns of states which choose to make use of armed interventions for humanitarian reasons in relation to states that elect not to intervene. This is done by a statistical analysis of five interventions: Iraq 91, Somalia 92, Rwanda 94, East Timor 99 and Libya 11. The analysis is based on theories which intend to explain why states use violence as a po-litical mean. The study finds that there are a number of factors where the separation between those who intervene and those who abstain is significant enough for it not to be statistically probable that the difference is due to chance
