humanitarian intervention
Humanitarianism refers to theologies of moral agency focusing on the transformation of spiritual life through active commitments to changing social, political, and economic conditions. The movement represents both a specific doctrinal strand in the evolution of American religion and a broad theme involving the commitment of many religious groups to charitable, philanthropic, and reformist endeavors.
