Communicating During Humanitarian Medical Crises : The Consequences of Silence or “Temoignage” by Marouf Hasian
Requirements: .PDF reader, 2.4 MB
Overview: The Promise and Perils of ‘Silence’ or ‘Temoignage’ During Humanitarian Crises provides readers with a nuanced study of what happens when historical and 21st century medical humanitarian communities, armed with their idealistic rhetorics, choose whether to speak out or remain silent during various military or medical crises. The author uses a series of case studies from the late nineteenth century to the early twenty-first century to illustrate the politicized nature of these decisions. Unlike some that focus on the prescriptive need to follow certain universal medical humanitarian principles during crises, this book highlights the precarious nature of what some scholars call “medical advocacy/witnessing” or what the French call “temoignage.”
