Gender Histories of Humanitarianism: Concepts and Perspectives. 330 $a?This volume is interesting both because of its global focus, and its chronology up to the present, it covers a good century of changes. It will help define the field of gender studies of humanitarianism, and its relevance for understanding the history of nation-building, and a political history that goes beyond nations.? - Glenda Sluga, Professor of International History and ARC Kathleen Laureate Fellow at the University of Sydney, Australia This volume discusses the relationship between gender and humanitarian discourses and practices in the twentieth century. It analyses the ways in which constructions, norms and ideologies of gender both shaped and were shaped in global humanitarian contexts. The individual chapters present issues such as post-genocide relief and rehabilitation, humanitarian careers and subjectivities, medical assistance, community aid, child welfare and child soldiering. They give prominence to the beneficiaries of aid and their use of humanitarian resources, organizations and structures by investigating the effects of humanitarian activities on gender relations in the respective societies. Approaching humanitarianism as a global phenomenon, the volume considers actors and theoretical positions from the global North and South (from Europe to the Middle East, Sub-Saharan Africa, South and South East Asia as well as North America). It combines state and non-state humanitarian initiatives and scrutinizes their gendered dimension on local, regional, national and global scales. Focusing on the time between the late nineteenth century and the post-Cold War era, the volume concentrates on a period that not only witnessed a major expansion of humanitarian action worldwide but also saw fundamental changes in gender relations and the gradual emergence of gender-sensitive policies in humanitarian organizations in many Western and non-Western settings. . 410 0$aPalgrave Macmillan Transnational History Series,$x2634-6273 606 $aWorld history 606 $aSociology 606 $aSocial history 606 $aMedicine?History 606 $aWorld History, Global and Transnational History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/719000 606 $aGender Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X35000 606 $aSocial History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/724000 606 $aHistory of Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H64000 615 0$aWorld history. 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aSocial history. 615 0$aMedicine?History. 615 14$aWorld History, Global and Transnational History. 615 24$aGender Studies. 615 24$aSocial History. 615 24$aHistory of Medicine. 676 $a361.26 702 $aMöller$b Esther$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPaulmann$b Johannes$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aStornig$b Katharina$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910416088203321 996 $aGendering Global Humanitarianism in the Twentieth Century$92193434 997 $aUNINA
