Night on Earth is a broad-ranging account of international
humanitarian programs in Central and Eastern Europe, the Balkans
and the Near East from 1918 to 1930. Davide Rodogno shows that
international 'relief' and 'development' were intertwined long
before the birth of the United Nations with humanitarians operating
in a region devastated by war and famine and in which state
sovereignty was deficient. Influenced by colonial motivations and
ideologies these humanitarians attempted to reshape entire
communities and nations through reconstruction and rehabilitation
programmes. The book draws on the activities of a wide range of
secular and religious organisations and philanthropic foundations
in the US and Europe including the American Relief Administration,
the American Red Cross, the Quakers, Save the Children, the Near
East Relief, the American Women's Hospitals, the League of Nations
and the International Committee of the Red Cross.
