Do International Ethics Matter? Humanitarian Politics in the Sudan [Abstract]
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
December 2, 1991
Weiss and Minear explore the problems associated with attempting to
operationalize the evolving international humanitarian norm that civilians,
regardless of location, are entitled to sustenance and medical assistance. In a
host of recent civil wars in Africa, the attention of the international
community has been drawn to the use of food deprivation by both governments and
insurgents. The use of such deprivation has traditionally been part of the
arsenals of warring factions, but the widespread and active mobilization of
international public opinion against such tactics is relatively new. The authors
argue that, while all historical situations are in some sense unique, Sudan is
not so idiosyncratic that the lessons and the precedents cannot be replicated
elsewhere to protect civilians caught between warring sides in civil wars.
