Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study attempted to find out the historical roots of the development of transnational humanitarian aid activities from the middle of the nineteenth century to the early twetieth century. It paid a special attention to the British practices. Charities for the poor Irish hit hard by the Great Potato Famine, charities for the Belgian refugees and other war victims by the British Red Cross and other institutions during the First World War, and the work of the Save the Children Fund established by an English woman in 1919 for the relief of children all testify to the British origins of such international/transnasional humanitarian activities.
