While many made their way home, genocide, revolution, and post-war instability delayed the repatriation of prisoners of war from Russia and the Central Powers, while Russian and Armenian refugees were forced into exile. In response to the inconsistent efforts of governments, a series of international organizations intervened. Three of these--the International Committee of the Red Cross, the League of Nations, and the International Labour Organization--designed and implemented humanitarian, political, and legal measures to protect prisoners of war and refugees. By examining together international officers, national representatives, relief workers, experts, local staff, prisoners of war, and refugees, the book sheds new light on the plurality of agencies and spaces that determined the contours of humanitarian protection and refugee politics. From international negotiations to the everyday practices of care, the book argues for the emergence of a plural, discordant, and gendered governance of refugee protection. This is a history of both failures and innovations, of compassion and cynicism, set against a complex and ever-changing political backdrop. 410 0$aGlobal Connections: Routes and Roots Series 606 $aHumanitarian law 606 $aMilitary history 606 $aPrisoners of war 615 0$aHumanitarian law. 615 0$aMilitary history. 615 0$aPrisoners of war. 676 $a361.2609 700 $aPiana$b Francesca$01314220 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910913762803321 996 $aHumanitarian Protection for Prisoners of War and Refugees in the Long Aftermath of the First World War$94302517 997 $aUNINA
