Hay dos desafíos contemporáneos diferentes para aliviar el sufrimiento humano inducido por la guerra: uno dentro de las instituciones que conforman el sistema humanitario internacional, y el otro sobre el terreno en zonas de guerra. Diversos intereses, recursos y estructuras organizativas dentro de las instituciones obstaculizan la eficacia de los esfuerzos en nombre de las víctimas de la guerra. Y al mismo tiempo, sobre el terreno, existen desafíos y dilemas éticos, legales y operativos que requieren que los actores elijan continuamente un curso de acción con los males necesarios asociados. Los desafíos humanitarios y las preocupaciones de intervención en el sistema humanitario internacional, combinados con el contexto doméstico de los conflictos armados, a menudo producen políticas que no satisfacen las necesidades inmediatas de las víctimas de socorro, protección de derechos, estabilización y reconstrucción. Sobre la base de estudios de caso convincentes y actualizados de la experiencia posterior a la Guerra Fría en América Central, el norte de Iraq, Somalia, la ex Yugoslavia y los Grandes Lagos africanos, los autores Thomas G. Weiss y Cindy Collins hacen recomendaciones para una un sistema humanitario internacional más eficaz. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
There are two distinct contemporary challenges to the relief of war-induced human suffering--one within the institutions that make up the international humanitarian system, the other on the ground in war zones. Varied interests, resources, and organizational structures within institutions hamper the effectiveness of efforts on behalf of war victims. And at the same time, on the ground, there are ethical, legal, and operational challenges and dilemmas that require actors continually to choose a course of action with associated necessary evils.Humanitarian challenges and intervention concerns within the international humanitarian system--combined with the domestic context of armed conflicts--often yield policies that do not serve the immediate requirements of victims for relief, protection of rights, stabilization, and reconstruction. Based on compelling, up-to-date case studies of the post-Cold War experience in Central America, northern Iraq, Somalia, the former Yugoslavia, and the African Great Lakes, the authors Thomas G. Weiss and Cindy Collins make recommendations for a more effective international humanitarian system. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
