Description

Explore the complex relationship between digital innovation and humanitarian aid in The Politics of Humanitarian Technology. This Routledge publication examines how the shift toward new digital tools affects people receiving assistance. While technologies like biometrics, remote sensing, and surveillance drones are intended to help, they often result in unexpected outcomes. This book uses theoretical insights from Foucault to analyze three specific examples of humanitarian technology use. It looks closely at how these tools can sometimes create additional risks and insecurities for vulnerable populations rather than providing only benefits. For students, researchers, and professionals interested in conflict, security, and technology, this text provides a necessary look at the unintended consequences of the digital turn in humanitarianism. It is an essential addition to the Routledge Studies in Conflict, Security and Technology series for those studying the intersection of modern tech and global security.
