Abstract

This article examines the role of international humanitarian law (ihl) and humanitarian principles in the discourse of humanitarian negotiation. The article is based on extensive, semi-structured interviews conducted with 53 humanitarian practitioners about their experiences engaging in negotiations in the field. The article proceeds in four parts. Part 1 discusses two key factors at play during humanitarian negotiation processes. The first factor is the counterpart’s familiarity with relevant legal and normative frameworks. The second factor is the interests that can drive counterparts’ behavior. Part 2 presents a framework for understanding how the interaction of these two factors – familiarity and interest-alignment – can shape the discourse of humanitarian negotiation. Part 3 addresses the impact of these same issues on the humanitarian side of the negotiation. In particular, there is the possibility that humanitarian actors themselves might also lack familiarity with ihl and/or humanitarian principles and might find that their interests exist in tension with humanitarian laws and principles. The final section offers concluding remarks.

与武装冲突各方的人道主义谈判
本文探讨了国际人道主义法和人道主义原则在人道主义谈判话语中的作用。这篇文章是根据对53名人道主义从业人员进行的广泛的半结构化访谈编写的,访谈内容涉及他们参与实地谈判的经验。文章分为四个部分。第1部分讨论了在人道主义谈判过程中发挥作用的两个关键因素。第一个因素是对方对相关法律和规范框架的熟悉程度。第二个因素是能够驱动对方行为的利益。第2部分提出了一个框架,用于理解这两个因素的相互作用——熟悉度和利益一致性——如何影响人道主义谈判的话语。第3部分论述了这些问题对谈判人道主义方面的影响。特别是,人道主义行为者本身可能也不熟悉国际人道主义法和(或)人道主义原则,并可能发现他们的利益与人道主义法律和原则存在紧张关系。最后一节提供结论性意见。

期刊介绍: The Journal of International Humanitarian Legal Studies is a peer reviewed journal aimed at promoting the rule of law in humanitarian emergency situations and, in particular, the protection and assistance afforded to persons in the event of armed conflicts and natural disasters in all phases and facets under international law. The Journal welcomes submissions in the areas of international humanitarian law, international human rights law, international refugee law and international law relating to disaster response. In addition, other areas of law can be identified including, but not limited to the norms regulating the prevention of humanitarian emergency situations, the law concerning internally displaced persons, arms control and disarmament law, legal issues relating to human security, and the implementation and enforcement of humanitarian norms. The Journal´s objective is to further the understanding of these legal areas in their own right as well as in their interplay. The Journal encourages writing beyond the theoretical level taking into account the practical implications from the perspective of those who are or may be affected by humanitarian emergency situations. The Journal aims at and seeks the perspective of academics, government and organisation officials, military lawyers, practitioners working in the humanitarian (legal) field, as well as students and other individuals interested therein.
