 i Fernando Espada Andrea Rigon Bertrand Taithe Rafia Zakaria\n\nIn recen
 t years\, liberal norms and institutions associated with the post-Cold W
 ar moment have been challenged by a visceral and affective politics. Thi
 s has provoked the production of a considerable body of angsty writing o
 n the state of liberalism. Bringing together intellectuals and aid worke
 rs\, this book interrogates assumptions about liberal order and its puta
 tive collapse through discussion of one of its defining features: humani
 tarianism.\n\nIt addresses three main questions: i) How should we unders
 tand the relationship between Western humanitarianism\, in its contempor
 ary form\, and liberal order? ii) Is this really the end of liberal orde
 r? iii) To what extent do challenges to liberal order pose a threat to h
 umanitarianism?\n\nJoin us for the launch event and participate in a dis
 cussion about the book and its relevance to the big political and moral 
 questions of our time.\n\nThe book can be purchased in the UK on Hurst w
