Abstract

Humanitarian crises have become more frequent, complex and protracted. If current trends continue, it is estimated that by 2030, humanitarian assistance costs could increase to $50 billion per year. By then, two-thirds of the worlds poor are at risk of living in conflict-affected countries. To bridge the gap, humanitarian organizations are increasingly utilizing innovative financing tools such as impact bonds, faith-based finance and other innovative financial products and services to mobilize greater funding to address humanitarian needs. This book is among the first to assess a set of innovative financing mechanisms that have been transforming the humanitarian sector and explores their key opportunities, challenges and future prospects. This book will be of interest to academics, practitioners, humanitarian organizations and policy makers involved in humanitarian financing and to the humanitarian sector in general.

Abstract

This book deals in different ways with the politics of death, with art and politics and with the politics of refuge and asylum. Cutting across these fields brings to the fore the fluid quality of social life under late capitalism. The elements of time, space and emotion are part of the overall approach adopted. The individual chapters illustrate themes of despair, striving and the politics of hope, and bring out the fluid and unpredictable qualities of social life. The guiding metaphor is fluidity, or what Urry refers to as "waves; continuous flow; pulsing; fluidity and viscosity" characteristic of life, death, refuge and art under the contemporary global system. Between the worlds of culture, political violence and art, the interconnected themes in this study illuminate conditions of 'liminality', or in-betweenness. The study presents a politics of hope under late capitalism, and cuts through more usual boundaries between art and science, harm and help, death and the politics of bare life. Each chapter grapples with issues that help illustrate wider trends in Global Development and International Relations scholarship and teaching. Amidst growing cynicism about human or even humanitarian values, the volume appeals for a politics of hope and social justice, based on the fluid contours of borderless and amorphous processes of self-organising and radical anarchy. Helen Hintjens is Assistant Professor in Development and Social Justice at the International Institute of Social Studies in The Hague, The Netherlands. For more than 30 years she has studied the comparative asylum policies of EU member states in the context of broader post-colonial relationships and ideas. Her particular interests are in pro-asylum advocacy networks and activists, the politics of selective urban surveillance of undocumented rejected asylum seekers, and networks of 'cities of sanctuary', as well as resistance to deterrence-based measures of destitution, detention and forced deportation. Her regional focus is on the countries of the Great Lakes region, especially Rwanda and Eastern DRC, and the relations of francophone Africa with EU member states. She works on peace-building, including through music and the arts, in Rwanda and the wider region.

Abstract

Wat houdt humanitaire hulp precies in ? Wie financiert ze ? En is de lokale bevolking wel zo hulpeloos ? Bruno De Cordier leidt de lezer met verve door de even bonte, complexe als boeiende wereld van de humanitaire hulp.Bruno De Cordier verstaat de kunst een boek te schrijven vol informatie en diepgang, zonder ook maar een beetje in te leveren op toegankelijkheid en leesplezier. Een geweldig boek, dat zich even goed leent ter ondersteuning van het onderwijs als voor zelfstudie. - Dorothéa Hilhorst, hoogleraar humanitaire hulp en wederopbouw, Erasmus Universiteit Rotterdam Een bijzonder boeiend overzicht van de geschiedenis van het humanitaire werk, en een realistische schets van de huidige situatie. Bruno De Cordier durft een paar heilige huisjes op te blazen, zonder het geheel volledig te ondermijnen. Ook de absolute leek kan moeiteloos volgen door het kundig ontwijken van vakjargon en andere typische terminologie. - Christophe Verhellen, Communication Officer Benelux, Informatiecentrum van de Verenigde Naties voor West-EuropaDe geschiedenis van humanitaire hulp wordt doorspekt met interessante weetjes, en de auteur laat niet na zijn blik ook kritisch over de hedendaagse humanitaire ruimte en voedselhulp te laten gaan. Het resultaat is een absolute aanrader! - Axel Vande veegaete, Wetenschappelijk coördinator Humanitaire Diensten Rode Kruis VlaanderenBron : http://www.bol.com

Abstract

Hoe vaak worden wij niet geconfronteerd met schrijnende armoede, onrecht en leed? We hoeven de televisie maar aan te zetten of we zien beelden die weliswaar ver van ons afstaan, maar toch overdonderen. Wat moeten we met die kennis? In Mondiale rechtvaardigheid gaan de filosofen Thomas Mertens en Ronald Tinnevelt in op de vraag hoe we kunnen denken over verantwoordelijkheid bij mondiaal onrecht. De verschillende manieren waarop mensen reageren op lijden vormen daarbij het uitgangspunt. Vervolgens behandelen de auteurs de verschillende filosofische posities ten aanzien van deze reacties. Hebben wij ook de plicht anderen te helpen? En hoe ziet die eventuele plicht eruit in internationaal verband?
