A collection of practical essays by nine authors who have been involved in one way or another in efforts to alleviate human suffering in times of war. The work is organized into three interrelated parts that represent crucial aspects of the global effort to improve the international humanitarian system: values, the use of military force, and the future shape of humanitarian institutions. Each of the sections is preceded by a commentary that places the contributions of the authors within current debates about how best to sustain civilians in times of war.
