Drawing from timely case studies on the war in Ukraine, the Ebola pandemic in West Africa, the 2023 Turkey-Syria earthquakes, and the global flows of aid from Arab states to the Persian Gulf, the book considers humanitarianism's multiple histories and offers a profound reassessment of humanitarian pluralism today. It critically discusses humanitarianism as a historically, politically, and culturally contingent phenomenon that entails unequal relations of power and multiple forms of universalism, as well as issues of dehumanization and inhumanity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Till Mostowlansky\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1806550199\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781806550197\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e UCL Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/05\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.24h x 6.20w x 0.46d","brand":"Till Mostowlansky","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49084338077951,"sku":"9781806550197","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/humanitarianism-from-below-till-mostowlansky-9781806550197","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
