«Una cama por una noche» is David Rieff's essay on humanitarianism, published by Taurus in paperback in 2003, with 400 pages, in Spanish.
Rieff, a witness to wars such as Bosnia, Rwanda and Afghanistan, analyses how the Red Cross and Médecins Sans Frontières abandoned their neutrality to push for international intervention in civil wars and ethnic cleansing. The shift can isolate victims and serve external interests; Rieff calls for an independent humanitarianism.
The subtitle is «El humanitarismo en crisis»; the Spanish edition was translated by Jesús Cuéllar Menezo.
For readers interested in international politics, practical philosophy and the debate on humanitarian aid in conflicts.
David Rieff is an American nonfiction writer and policy analyst. His books have focused on issues of immigration, international conflict, and humanitarianism.
