Book Price $0 : Humanitarian Intervention Invariably Rubs Shoulders With Politics, Albeit Awkwardly And Sometimes Even With Tragic Results. Tensions Between Them Take Many Forms, Ranging From Different Assessments Of The Extent Or Even The Existence Of A Crisis To Claims That Humanitarian Assistance Is Not Saving Innocent Lives But Sustaining Politico-military Forces, Or To The Conclusion That The Constraints Upon Them Compel Aid Agencies To Withdraw From The Area Of Operation Completely - Whether To Ensure The Safety Of Their Own Staff Or Because They Believe That Their Integrity Is Unacceptably Compromised By Staying.Development And Humanitarianism Addresses These And Other Dilemmas That Aid Agencies Face In Interpreting The Principles Of Humanitarianism In Contexts Where They Risk Being Manipulated By Political Agendas. The Contributors Have Extensive Experience As Frontline Aid Workers, Agency Policy Makers, Academics And Researchers, And Professional Consultants Around The World. Like Every Book In The Development In Practice Readers Series, Development And Humanitarianism Draws On The Contents Of The Acclaimed International Journal, Development In Practice And Includes An Annotated Resource List Of Recent Publications, Relevant Journals, Organizations And Websites Presenting A Cutting-edge Guide To Thinking And Action. Other Contributors: Gretchen Alther, Andrew Bonwick, Julia Buckmaster, Udan Fernando, Dorothea Hilhorst, Jonathan Makuwira, Vanessa Pupavac, Volker Schimmel, Astri Suhrke, Frank James Tester, Martha Thompson And Suzanne Williams.
