Laure Humbert (University of Manchester)

Reinventing French Aid

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Laure Humbert explores how humanitarian aid was influenced by French politics of national recovery and the rivalries of the Cold War. She highlights different cultures of rehabilitation in the French zone of occupied Germany, in part rooted in pre-war ideas about 'overcoming' poverty and war-induced injuries in the domestic context.
