Interventions médicales humanitaires et prévention sans frontières : médecine ou idéologie ?

Abstract

Bernard Hours, Humanitarian Medical Interventions and Prevention without Borders : Medicin or Ideology ? ; For humanitarian doctors, the object of human rights is the human victim, no longer as the subject of history but as a wounded body with an identity crystallized in a state of dependence. For a generation of doctors, a preventive pulsion on a planetary scale which confuses politics and medicin, and in which lucidity is not a principal virtue, has become an ideological orientation. At a time when democratic transparency is increasingly rare, this ideology is perfectly congruent with global management.
