Abstract:
The War on Drugs has had grave humanitarian consequences for Latin America. It has encouraged a highly militarized and ultimately unsuccessful approach to drug control, leading to violence, displacement, and human suffering throughout the region. In acknowledging and responding to this suffering, humanitarian organizations have recently begun to frame this situation as a “humanitarian crisis” to facilitate humanitarian entry into new spaces. There is a need for a conceptual conversation about the use of the label “humanitarian crisis” in reference to the human costs of the War on Drugs in Latin America, particularly its rhetorical and normative use by the media and civil society and its strategic and moral use by humanitarian actors. La Guerra contra las Drogas ha tenido grave consecuencias humanitarias para América Latina. Ha promovido un enfoque altamente militarizado y en última instancia fallido, para controlar las drogas, lo que ha provocado violencia, desplazamientos y sufrimiento humano a través de la región. Como reconocimiento y respuesta a este sufrimiento, las organizaciones humanitarias recientemente han empezado a plantear esta situación como una “crisis humanitaria” para así facilitar la entrada humanitaria en nuevos espacios. Es necesario que se dé una conversación teórica sobre el uso de la categoría “crisis humanitaria” en referencia a los costos humanos de la Guerra contra las Drogas en América Latina, especialmente su uso retórico y prescriptivo por parte de los medios de comunicación y la sociedad civil y su uso estratégico y moral por parte de los agentes humanitarios.

Abstract:
Humanitarianism as a concept is arguably as old as humanity itself. To help one's fellow man in their time of need irrespective of race, religion, caste, or creed has been preached by innumerable ideologies. Despite being such a universally understood concept, in recent decades humanitarianism, has faced increased conflation with ‘humanitarian intervention’. This paper seeks to discern the differences between humanitarianism and humanitarian intervention and will do so by examining the ideological and foundational differences between the two concepts. The two concepts despite sounding similar are fundamentally different; they involve different actors and have different objectives. This paper will distinguish between state and non- state actors and the different humanitarian roles, values, and interests they have. This paper will posit that states that engage in military interventions are not humanitarians and that the conflation of such actions with those of impartial non-state actors are highly damaging to the ideals and values of humanitarianism.

Abstract:
AbstractThe study of humanitarian intervention typically focuses on the human victims and saviours in armed conflict and natural disasters. Moreover, explanations of the virtues of humanitarian norms and ethics emphasise the importance of the university of suffering and the empathic nature of humanitarian efforts. In contrast, this article explores the neglected world of ‘non-human humanitarians’. Specifically, the article outlines three cases of non-human actors that expand and complicate international humanitarian practices: dogs, drones, and diagrams. Drawing on new materialist and posthuman literatures, the article argues that non-humans possess distinct capacities that vastly expand and transform humanitarian efforts in ranging from relief, to medicine, to conflict resolution. Highlighting non-human humanitarians thus offers a new perspective on the resources available for redressing mass violence and conflict, but also complicates existing definitions of humanitarian norms. To the contrary, the article demonstrates that non-humans often maximise humanitarian services to a degree greater than their human counterparts, but have also introduced changes into humanitarian practices that have problematic unintended consequences. Non-human humanitarians reveals previously discounted participants in international politics and the key roles they play in various international interventions.

Abstract:
This paper scrutinises the modus operandi of classical and political humanitarianism: the use of ambiguity and prescription to frame calls for international action to protect civilians, and public commentary on jus in bello and jus ad bellum. It does so by innovatively considering the perspectives of belligerents alongside those of humanitarian actors, so as to identify how belligerents have responded to the two humanitarian modus operandi, and to ascertain the connection of humanitarian actors to the wars and international military interventions that they have implicitly or explicitly called for or endorsed. The paper finds that the response of belligerents differs from what both classical and political humanitarians expect. Even where humanitarians maintain ambiguity, the intention to will military action remains present and even the documentation and reporting of violence will bolster military intervention. Such consequences will be perceptible to belligerents, who may restrict humanitarian space. When humanitarians advance jus ad bellum perspectives, the humanitarian identity envisioned by classicists is not necessarily compromised. But belligerents are positively influenced by such perspectives only when those perspectives coincide with their own position.

Abstract:
Purpose – Raising standards are leading humanitarians to become increasingly interested in measuring the performance of their supply chain. A few researchers have addressed this topic, building on classical measurement theories and trying to identify the salient features of the humanitarian sector. This young body of literature must now be tested against current practice. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – The practitioners’ perspective is explored through a multiple case study, based on qualitative evidence, within three major humanitarian organizations. Results are discussed using a situation-actor-process – learning-action-performance model of inquiry. Preceding this investigation, a literature review delves into research on humanitarian supply chain performance measurement and presents the most relevant pieces in a general framework. Findings – Humanitarians have elaborated measures whose essential focus is laid on service level. The more comprehensive approach advocated by researchers has received some consideration but is still poorly implemented. An issue that is given more priority by humanitarians is the accelerated supply chain integration they are going through. Originality/value – In addition to an unprecedented literature review, this paper offers a comparative study of humanitarian organizations’ practices in the field of supply chain performance measurement. Humanitarian procurement centres, virtually ignored in literature until now, are scrutinized at a turning point of their evolution.

Abstract:
AbstractObtaining and maintaining humanitarian access to populations in need by humanitarian actors is a challenge. A wide range of constraints on humanitarian access exist, including ongoing hostilities or an otherwise insecure environment, destruction of infrastructure, often onerous bureaucratic requirements, and attempts by parties to armed conflict to block access intentionally. The difficulties that these constraints present to humanitarians are frequently compounded by a lack of familiarity – on the part of states, non-state armed groups, and humanitarian relief organizations – with the legal framework. The main purpose of this article is to lay out the existing international legal framework regulating humanitarian access in situations of armed conflict.

Abstract:
This paper examines the lack of engagement between liberal political philosophers and humanitarians on the issue of humanitarian intervention. It argues that the recent emergence of the Responsibility to Protect (R2P) agenda provides a great opportunity to overcome this mutual disinterest in each other’s positions. R2P, especially as formulated by the International Commission on Intervention and State Sovereignty, is fairly demanding. In order to formulate an adequate response, liberals and humanitarians need to reconsider their positions. In this respect, insights provided by liberal political theory are helpful to humanitarians. Firstly, liberal reasoning offers justifications for potential restrictions of the humanitarian scope of concern in the course of halting mass atrocities. Second, liberal values indicate how humanitarians can respond to the challenges posed by post-war reconstruction. Conversely, humanitarian considerations should prompt liberals to think harder about the conduct of military intervention, as well as the material basis of successful post-atrocity reconstruction.

Abstract:
The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK, or North Korea) has been a recipient of international humanitarian aid from international organisations (IOs) and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) since 1995. In recent years, multilateral and unilateral sanctions in response to the DPRK’s nuclear programme have created a new layer of difficulty for humanitarians looking to engage with the authoritarian state. This paper explores how sanctions are affecting humanitarian work in practice, utilising interviews with practitioners. The research first surveys documentation, particularly from IOs, to establish how humanitarians understand contemporary need inside the country. Next, this paper examines the impacts of sanctions on aid efforts, with a particular focus on multilateral United Nations Security Council (UNSC) sanctions and unilateral American measures. Unpacking humanitarian challenges and potential ways to navigate the sanctions regime provides a foundation for academics and humanitarian practitioners to better understand both the DPRK and possible avenues for principled, effective aid.

Abstract:
During the last decades, disasters and catastrophes both natural and handmade have been radically increased and it seems this way of things will continue the next years. In such this situation there has been even a growth in terms of humanitarian operations, in particular of the total humanitarian effort in terms of resources and supply chain in general. According to the literature here, the logistic impact covers up to 80% percent of the total effort. All the organizations involved in these operations gave special attention to logistic performance, with an always crescent focus on effectiveness, efficiency and sustainability. In fact, the long term social impact that the disasters and the next operations can cause to the population and in general to the area, is well known by the researchers. For these reasons it is important to define, monitor and improve the logistic functions efficiency; moreover it is important to introduce a new sustainable way to reach the success of all the operations perspectives. With this goal in mind, this research introduces new theoretical innovative methods to analyze the logistic systems performances and it introduces, through an appropriate and deep literature review, new models that present the sustainability and the social impact associated to the logistic practices in the humanitarian environment. This thesis is composed by these principal sections: • Introduction and analysis of the humanitarian literature with a focus on the different divers that usually are used for the evaluation of humanitarian operations. Moreover it presents a definition of a general decision making framework and its application. • Introduction and definition of forward distribution models. In particular, the discussion of the tradeoff between the costs analysis and the demand satisfaction or shortage, associated to the use of different fleets and the development of innovative heuristic models for the distribution that considers typical humanitarian features. • Introduction and definition of innovative reverse logistics practices based on what is normally used in the industrial supply chain and based on what the humanitarian organizations are implementing in the fields; as an example it is presented a real reverse logistics case, with real data and issued from an Italian case study, the Emilia Romagna earthquake (2012). Moreover, an innovative reverse logistic model for the location of reverse plants is presented, with the study of their impact in humanitarian operations. The present work has carried out to the publishing of several scientific contributions in relevant International Journals and Conferences, like Journal of Humanitarian Logistics and Supply Chain Management, International Journal of Service and Operations Management and International Journal of Operations and Quantitative Management.
Negli ultimi decenni sono aumentati considerevolmente i disastri e le catastrofi sia naturali sia derivanti dall’uomo, con una conseguente crescita del numero delle relative operazioni umanitarie. In questa situazione, è diventato enorme l’impiego di risorse nella catena di fornitura umanitaria, in cui, secondo la letteratura, la logistica copre fino all’ottanta per cento del totale sforzo. Inoltre, è stata posta maggiore attenzione alle performance logistiche delle diverse organizzazioni coinvolte nelle operazioni umanitarie e grande cura nei confronti dell’efficienza e della sostenibilità degli aiuti. Efficienza e sostenibilità sono due caratteristiche fortemente legate tra loro, in particolare per quanto riguarda l’impatto sociale a lungo termine dei disastri e le successive operazioni di risposta ai bisogni delle popolazioni colpite. É stato importante quindi riuscire a definire, monitorare e migliorare l’efficienza delle funzioni logistiche, oltre a introdurre nuovi termini per raggiungere una sostenibilità che si riferisca a tutti gli ambiti dell’operazione. Su tale fronte, questo elaborato introduce innovativi modelli teorici per l’analisi delle performance dei sistemi logistici e sostiene, attraverso un appropriato studio della letteratura, nuovi modelli che introducono e sviluppano la sostenibilità e l’impatto sociale delle pratiche logistiche in ambiente umanitario, con esclusiva attenzione alle particolarità e alle problematiche ad esso associate. L’elaborato si articola nelle seguenti parti: 1. Introduzione della letteratura e dei criteri-drivers utilizzati per la valutazione di questioni di carattere umanitario. Sviluppo dello studio del loro legame con applicazioni logistiche reali e numeriche; 2. Introduzione di modelli per la distribuzione nell’ultimo miglio. Discussione dello stretto legame tra flotta logistica e performance in termini di costi e soddisfazione della domanda; 3. Presentazione e sviluppo di modelli euristici per la distribuzione che considerino le caratteristiche tipiche umanitarie e allo stesso tempo introduzione di modelli semplici da implementare e utilizzare in casi reali; 4. Introduzione e definizione di nuove tecniche di reverse logistics in operazioni umanitarie, con studi provenienti dal campo, dalla letteratura e dagli aspetti che le organizzazioni stanno implementando; 5. Presentazione di un caso di reverse attuato in Italia: il waste management dopo il terremoto in Emila Romagna del 2012; 6. Definizione di un nuovo modello per la locazione di impianti di smaltimento e studio dell’impatto, in termini di performance, che questo può avere nelle operazioni umanitarie. Il lavoro di tesi è stato sviluppato in stretta collaborazione con il Prof. Luk Van Wassenhove, Professore di “Technology and Operations Management” e Direttore dell’Humanitarian Research Group presso l’INSEAD Business School (Fontainebleau, France), e con il Prof. Peter Tatham, Professore di logistica umanitaria presso la Griffith University e Direttore del Dipartimento di “International Business and Asian Studies”. Durante il dottorato e grazie ai periodi di ricerca all’estero, i contributi di tale ricerca sono stati portati alla pubblicazione su importanti riviste e presentati a convegni internazionali.

Abstract:
The time is ripe for a re-examination of the doctrine of humanitarian intervention, and in particular, of its legal basis in international law. This thesis attempts to draw attention to the significance of the decision to justify humanitarian intervention in a certain way, and to some of the implications of that decision.
The thesis compares the two justificatory options which seem to be most appropriate to the multilateralism of the post-Cold War era: collective humanitarian intervention under Chapter VII of the UN Charter and mulitilateral humanitarian intervention under customary international law. It reviews recent state practice, arguing that a mulitilateral right to intervene for the protection of human rights is emerging at custom.
After critically analysing humanitarian intervention's justification under the Charter, the thesis concludes that the better way to justify the doctrine, both in principle and in practice, is under customary law.

Abstract:
The central claim in the first part of the thesis [sections one to six] is that humanitarian relief that is given with strict adherence to the non-intervention norm results in the virtual abandonment of populations in distress. This claim is supported with examples of the humanitarian relief activity of the International Committee of the Red Cross [ICRC] during the period from the Second World War to the 1990's which show that the traditional humanitarian principles have failed. In light of this I formulated seven principles that embody a new type of humanitarianism that is. politically y engaged, culturally sensitive, and actively promotes human rights. The new principles are supported by rule utilitarianism and are a clear departure from the traditional approach of the ICRC which conducts their relief activity in strict operational neutrality. I maintain that humanitarian relief should no longer be given without question and unconditionally regardless of the circumstances.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis examines how humanitarian assistance and political aspects interact in complex humanitarian emergencies (CHEs) in both negative and positive ways, how to minimize negative outcomes, and how humanitarian assistance can contribute to conflict resolution. Although humanitarian assistance has long been considered to be separate from politics, the division between the two has posed serious difficulties for humanitarian aid agencies responding to disasters and even has resulted in negative impacts on political and humanitarian aspects. In order to confront CHEs today, humanitarians need to collaborate conceptually and practically with political actors, while political actors need to be sensitive to humanitarian needs. A priority is considered the minimalist position, aiming at "doing no harm." Under the right circumstances, the maximalist approach can be viewed as an opportunity for maximizing the effects of humanitarian efforts to alleviate people's suffering and contributing to conflict resolution by employing humanitarian assistance as a powerful instrument.

Since the year 2000, at least 300 disasters occurred annually, catching more than 100 million people unprepared and in need of international assistance every year. The United Nations operates five humanitarian response depots (UNHRDs), stocked with over 1,000 types of humanitarian relief items. In the event of an emergency, the UNHRDs deploy the pre-positioned stocks to meet the initial demand of those people affected. Our thesis evaluates the response capacity of the UNHRDs to a single potential disaster: what percentage of total affected people can be served and in what time period. Developed from a stochastic linear programming model, this two-part index assumes that the depots operate as a network, lead times are proportional to distances from depots, and stockpiles are optimized individually for each relief item. Given a specific level of initial inventory for each item, the model also provides insight into how to distribute relief items throughout the five depots to minimize the expected delivery time. Based on a marginal benefit analysis, each unit of inventory is allocated to a depot to minimize the total expected delivery times to disasters. We describe how the UNHRDs and other humanitarian relief organizations can strategically pre-position limited emergency relief resources to maximize their capacity to respond to disasters.

Abstract:
Communication campaigns by major organizations in the field of development have been heavily dependent on humanitarian photography to motivate and attract donors. This genre of photography serves its purpose by informing, surprising and attracting the attention of a broad audience. It captures real life and real problems people in need have to deal with in remote areas of the world. This paper delves into the use of visual semiotics in the context of humanitarian photography and for the purpose of fund-raising by case study research of recent communication campaigns as implemented by major players in the field such as the International Committee of the Red Cross, the Global Fund to Fights AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, Doctors without Border, CARE and Save the Children. The purpose is to identify key issues which allow for the elicitation of a sign framework specific to the fund-raising genre and its idiosyncratic use of visual signs in photography based on a broad theoretical basis of semiotics. The analysis focuses on the content and methods of signification of photography in each case study. The effectiveness of humanitarian photography and important aspects of its function is discussed in the scope of its use as a communication medium for development.

Abstract:
This thesis aims to explore why, and in what ways football is, and can be used within humanitarian action. I will discuss the reasons why football is particularly suitable, and how to build an effective program. I will take a closer look at peacebuilding and psychosocial support, how it connects to football and what attributes of the game that promotes a project’s success. The research is based on a literature study, and I have taken examples from both academic articles and other books. I have found a range of attributes that makes football particularly good to work with, including the physical aspect of the game, the joy it brings to the participants, and that it is a safe framed space where to explore new perspectives. That football is a team sport is essential when working with both peacebuilding and psychosocial support. The social platform football consists of is the foundation to cooperation and changing the view of ‘the other’. Moreover, it can build a sense of belongingness, not only to the players themselves but also to the team and the club which might be crucial in a volatile context such as forced migration. I partly challenge the idea that sport does not have any inherent positive factors for people’s well-being. I found the physical aspect and that it is teams that are winning, not individuals as reasons for this. But I also found, that creating an environment where the actors are autonomously motivated is the most important factor, not only to give optimal opportunity for the actors to perform in the best way but for their well-being as well.

Abstract:
Today, the world is on the eve of a major energy crisis, a situation that seems to be accelerating steps towards a revolution in identifying complementary energy sources to ensure continuity in all activities, including humanitarian ones. Starting from the relationship between disasters - humanitarian emergencies - complex humanitarian emergencies, the paper highlights the novelty of the concept of humanitarian energy and highlights the important role of energy in the management process of humanitarian activities. This paper defines humanitarian energy as the interface zone between humanitarian response and energy. Our method of documenting the topic is based on bibliometric analysis that involved extensive literature screening. The research put into evidence the results of recent studies revealing the links between energy and humanitarian clusters, and the recent research subjects related to humanitarian energy. The study's findings indicate that humanitarian energy is a new and emerging theme, approached from multiple perspectives and disciplinary areas, including economic one, that requires a broad level of knowledge, integrated analysis, and public-private management. The research results reveal that most of the studies related to this field are on renewable energy and energy access. Although security (protection) issues are recognized as a priority in the management of humanitarian problems, this topic has not received much attention given the risks that lack of access to energy generates in humanitarian settings. Considering the applicability of the research studies linked to the humanitarian energy for all the stakeholders and the predictable dynamics of forced displacement movements in the context of climate change and/or conflict, as well as the risks arising from lack of inadequate planning, we conclude that research studies should further deep explore the issues of humanitarian energy management in emergencies and crises from both an economic and security perspective.
