Begun in 1971 as a French alternative to the Red Cross, the MSF has grown into an international institution with a reputation for outspoken protest as well as technical efficiency. It has also expanded beyond emergency response, providing for a wider range of endeavors, including AIDS care. Yet its seemingly simple ethical goal proves deeply complex in practice. MSF continually faces the problem of defining its own limits. 000461600 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000461600 61020 $$aMédecins sans frontières (Association) 000461600 650_0 $$aVoluntary health agencies$$xMoral and ethical aspects. 000461600 655_7 $$aElectronic books.$$2lcsh 000461600 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aRedfield, Peter, 1965-$$tLife in crisis.$$dBerkeley : University of California Press, c2013$$z9780520274846$$z9780520274853$$w(DLC) 2012034935$$w(OCoLC)808769544 000461600 8520_ $$bacq 000461600 85280 $$bebk$$hEbrary 000461600 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1120969$$zOnline Access 000461600 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:461600$$pGLOBAL_SET 000461600 980__ $$aEBOOK 000461600 980__ $$aBIB 000461600 982__ $$aEbook 000461600 983__ $$aOnline
