Description: "This study examines the international protection granted to displaced civilians during the Iraqi, Bosnian, Somali and Rwandan conflicts. Using thematic and comparative approaches, Cecile Dubernet provides the reader with a systematic analysis of the ways in which relief and protection were promised and delivered to people on the move." "Clear and intellectually stimulating, this volume is not only an important tool for students of international relations, security and development studies seeking to understand today's responses to humanitarian crises, but it also raises numerous questions for researchers, academics and policy makers interested in post-cold war issues."--Jacket.
