El giro hacia la “resiliencia” como principio estructurador en los programas de ayuda ha producido nuevos modos de gobernanza que desafían lo que denomino el excepcionalismo moral del mandato del humanitarismo. Este artículo rastrea la trayectoria del moralismo en los estudios humanitarios, explorando cómo la tensión productiva entre las lecturas en contrapunto del humanitarismo como intención moral o cuidado biopolítico es superada por la visión ontológica del paradigma de la resiliencia de un mundo intrínsecamente frágil y vulnerable. Contrariamente a las críticas teóricas de la resiliencia como una extensión de los principios neoliberales a la gobernanza global, me baso en el contexto de la crisis de los refugiados sirios en Jordania para argumentar que el humanitarismo de la resiliencia, de hecho, ha provocado un retorno al bienestar estatal como el garante final de los derechos de los refugiados.application/pdfengUniversidad EAFIThttps://publicaciones.eafit.edu.co/index.php/co-herencia/article/view/7108https://publicaciones.eafit.edu.co/index.php/co-herencia/article/view/7108Copyright © 2022 Malay FirozopenAccessLibre accesohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Co-herencia, Vol. 19, Núm. 36 (2022)Adapt or Die?

The epistemic terrain of humanitarian morality has undergone a profound paradigmatic transformation in recent years. The turn towards “resilience” as a structuring principle in aid programmes has produced new modes of governance that challenge what I call the moral exceptionalism of humanitarianism’s mandate. This article traces the trajectory of moralism in humanitarian studies, exploring how the productive tension between contrapuntal readings of humanitarianism as moral intent or biopolitical care is transcended by the resilience paradigm’s ontological vision of an intrinsically fragile and vulnerable world. Contrary to theoretical critiques of resilience as an extension of neoliberal tenets to global governance, I draw on the context of the Syrian refugee crisis in Jordan to argue that resilience humanitarianism has in fact prompted a return to state welfare as the final guarantor of refugee rights. |
