It adds to the conversation on reforming the global humanitarian system by providing the space to share perspectives of what constitutes humanitarian action from our place in the world. The authors in this collection answer these questions by focusing on a range of issues from national to sectoral perspectives to relations between traditional and emerging players, concluding that the dynamics of the humanitarian system from the perspectives of Asia-Pacific are rooted in their localized experiences and built outwards. The first significant trend is that understandings of humanitarianism Asia-Pacific are primarily shaped by the experience of disasters at home. Second, national governments play a dominant role in humanitarian affairs in the region. Finally, the humanitarian landscape in Asia-Pacific constitutes a diverse yet under-appreciated set of actors. This book is based on the RSIS Conference on Asia and the Humanitarian World held in 2019 in Singapore. It is relevant to students, scholars, practitioners and policymakers with an interest in humanitarian assistance, disaster management, strategic studies and international relations in Asia-Pacific. 001435236 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001435236 650_0 $$aHumanitarianism$$zPacific Area. 001435236 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001435236 7001_ $$aCook, Alistair D.
