Description

Explore the history of humanitarianism with Making the World Safe, written by historian Julia Irwin and published by Oxford University Press. This book provides an insightful account of the American Red Cross, tracing its journey from its 1881 founding by Clara Barton to its development into the official voluntary aid agency for the United States government. Beyond the history of a single organization, Irwin examines a significant shift in the American identity. As the American Century began, the narrative follows how citizens started to view foreign aid as a vital part of international relations. This work details a period when many Americans believed the best way to engage with the world and increase global safety was through humanitarian assistance rather than military force. Perfect for readers interested in business and economic history, biographies, or the evolution of global aid, this text offers a clear look at how humanitarian efforts helped shape the nation's role on the world stage. It is an essential read for those studying how the United States transitioned into a major player in international affairs through service and relief.
