Abstract
The United States of America to restore its international dignity since September 11, 2001, it has devised and implemented strategies to reproduce its power, and has made great efforts to improve both its power generation resources and to deploy new sources of power. So the United States, along with compulsory, structural and institutional power, is trying to activate a new dimension of power as productive power. The question that arises is what is the source of the United States' international production of productive power? To answer this question, the paper assumes that international law is the most important source of US productive power after 9/11. To further understand this hypothesis, the evolution of the concept of international law by force in the context of the evolution of the principle of legitimate defense, humanitarian intervention, and international responsibility for protection after September 11 is examined as a case study in this article. This paper takes a descriptive-analytical approach and uses library resources to prove this hypothesis.
