The book traces the history of international humanitarianism from
the anti-slavery movement to the end of the cold war. It is based
on an extensive survey of the international literature and is
retold in an original narrative that relies on a close examination
of the sources. The reconstruction of humanitarianism's long
history unfolds around some crucial moments and events: the
colonial expansion of European countries, the two world wars and
their aftermaths, the emergence of a new postcolonial order. In
terms of its contents, narrative style, interpretative approach the
book is aimed at a large and diverse public including: scholars who
are studying and teaching humanitarianism; students who need to
learn about humanitarianism as part of their training or research;
operators and volunteers who are engaged in the field;
non-specialist readers who are interested in the topic because of
its relevance to current events. -- .
