Sanctions do sometimes work.

And quite often, such states collapse under the strains of their 
internal incoherence and contradictions.  Outside "interference" is then 
only required to pick up the pieces.

Note also that these days, most nations have signed up to a raft of 
international laws, treaties and agreements (Geneva Conventions on 
Warfare, the Human Rights Conventions etc).  This puts them squarely 
under the rule of law (both national and international) with all its 
attendant range of means of enforcement.
