Resumo: | |||||||||||||
The contextual changes in the historical course of the practices of
emergency and the discursive possibilities resulting from that, have yielded the
diversification of actors and the way in which the humanitarian aid is delivered.
The notions of neutrality, humanity and protection that pervade the
humanitarianism are managed in accordance to different principles and interests.
Throughout the twentieth century and on, the set of signifiers referring to the
practice of humanitarian assistance have opened up the opportunity for new
discourses to be creating other articulations to what is understood as
humanitarian or humanitarian action. The progressive agency of Private
Military or Security Companies (PMSCs) in this field is part of that phenomenon
and defies the space that, according to the traditional humanitarian agencies, was
supposed to be demilitarized. The dissertation examines how the discursive
process of openness to PMSCs have taken place and how the emergence of the
new humanitarianism contributed to the scenario of political disputes that seek
to legitimize a particular discursive chain rather than other narratives within what
I propose as the general field of humanitarian discursivity.
