In doing so, it demonstrates that the conflict brought about unlikely aid coalitions and intimate networks of aid, and led to a transformation of the relationships between some European organisations and colonial 'peripheries', leading to the emergence of new activities and actors. This book also interrogates the traditional dichotomy between civilian and military cultures of rehabilitation, and readdresses the role of the United States and its rise as a 'humanitarian superpower'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marie-Luce Desgrandchamps\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1526183471\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526183477\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/29\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 298\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Marie-Luce Desgrandchamps","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46807175495935,"sku":"9781526183477","price":36.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_210ebfd0-5554-4cff-ba6b-a285f6280830.jpg?v=1745378747","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/medical-care-humanitarianism-and-intimacy-marie-luce-desgrandchamps-9781526183477","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
