Abstract:
Cet article a été rédigé à partir de l’étude Crimes de guerre et politiques de terreur en Tchétchénie 1994-2004, réalisée par Laurence Binet et publiée dans la collection « Prises de parole publiques de Médecins Sans Frontières ». Cette collection de MSF, à destination interne, est progressivement rendue publique sur le site http://www.speakingout.msf.org. Elle s’efforce de décrire les processus de prise de décision qui ont mené aux positionnements publics de MSF lors de grandes crises humanitaires, ainsi que les dilemmes et controverses qui les ont accompagnés. Les études y prennent la forme d’un récit chronologique composé d’extraits de documents propres à l’organisation (rapports de situation, de mission, échanges de courriels, comptes rendus de réunions, communiqués de presse, rapports de témoignages) et d’articles de presse. S’y ajoutent des extraits d’entretiens menés avec les protagonistes de MSF, acteurs des processus. À partir de ces sources, l’article proposé ici décrit les positionnements publics de Médecins Sans Frontières, lors de la première (1994-1996) puis de la seconde guerre de Tchétchénie (après 1999) et rappelle le contexte opérationnel dans lequel ils s’inscrivaient. L’article se propose ensuite d’examiner les principaux questionnements et dilemmes que ces prises de paroles publiques ont posés à l’organisation aussi bien au moment où il fallait décider d’un positionnement public qu’a posteriori.

Abstract:
Abstract Studies of institutional complexity have explored how multiple logics influence organizational practices. This article illustrates how a single logic is maintained through its heterogeneous enactments and practices, via strong identification, in this case, with the logic of humanitarianism. Using the case of Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), we develop a theory around identity work and the heterogeneous enactment of institutional logic. We illustrate, via three historical examples, how MSF engaged in radically different practices across time and space, while adhering to a continuous yet polymorphous humanitarian logic. We explain this apparent paradox by referring to the internal contradictions within humanitarian logics, contradictions that do not lead to chaos because of the persistent cohesion effects of identity. We discuss implications for understanding organizational identity and institutional diversity.

Abstract:
AbstractThe Charter of Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), the guiding document for all of the organization's members, states in the final paragraph that volunteers “understand the risks and dangers of the missions they carry out”. Through a review of the different periods in the history of MSF, this article analyzes the changing interpretations that the organization's successive leaders have given to this reference to the acceptance of risk by individuals. The professionalization and expansion of MSF, coupled with its diversifying volunteer base and the changing international environment, have required constant renegotiation of the balance between institutional and individual responsibility for the dangers faced in the field. No doubt this process is far from over.

Abstract:
AbstractOver the past ten years, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) has provided medical care to almost 118,000 victims of sexual violence. Integrating related care into MSF general assistance to populations affected by crisis and conflicts has presented a considerable institutional struggle and continues to be a challenge. Tensions regarding the role of MSF in providing care to victims of sexual violence and when facing the multiple challenges inherent in dealing with this crime persist. An overview of MSF's experience and related reflection aims to share with the reader, on the one hand, the complexity of the issue, and on the other, the need to continue fighting for the provision of adequate medical care for victims of sexual violence, which despite the limitations is feasible.

Abstract:
AbstractThis opinion note explores some aspects of the relationship between humanitarian non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and extractive industries. Médecins sans Frontières (Doctors without Borders, MSF) has endorsed a policy of non-engagement with the corporate sector of the extractive industries, particularly when it comes to financial donations. This is coherent with MSF being first and foremost a medical organisation, and one that adheres to the humanitarian principles of independence and neutrality. For humanitarian actors, the prospect of future environmental disasters and environmental conflicts calls for the anticipation of novel encounters, not only with environmental organisations but also with the extractive sector. Unlike environmental organisations, extractive industries are prone to generating or perpetuating different forms of violence, often putting extractive companies on a par with the parties to armed conflicts. In situations where a dialogue with extractive companies would be needed to optimise care and access to victims, humanitarian organisations should carefully weigh pragmatic considerations against the risk of being co-opted as medical providers of mitigation measures.

Abstract:
This article analyzes the digital communication of Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) during its intervention in Spain due to the emergency caused by COVID-19. Using content analysis techniques, the text engages with a number of the messages posted on the MSF website, emails sent to partners and publications on Facebook and Twitter. The material (a total 58 messages) is categorized by subject, sender, format, and objective, as well as the presence of informative or emotional approaches. Complementarily, items such as intensity, positive or negative undertones and the terms most frequently used are also examined. Our conclusion points towards the use of digital communication with a view to reinforce MSF's public image as an entity specialized in health care in emergency situations. The unprecedented intervention in Spain during the COVID-19 crisis has also shown MSF to be accountable to its audiences, showing how the organization usually works in other countries.

Abstract:
This article explores the everyday practice of security management and negotiations for access conducted by Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) in North Kivu, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Based on ethnographic fieldwork, interviews and archival exploration, it examines the experience of MSF Congolese employees, who navigate a complex politics of humanitarian fixing and brokerage. Their role in MSF is simultaneously defined and circumscribed by their political and social situation. MSF’s security management relies on local staff’s interpersonal networks and on their ability to interpret and translate. However, local staff find themselves at risk, or perceived as a ‘risk’: exposed to external pressures and acts of violence, while possibilities for promotion are limited precisely because of their embeddedness. They face a tension between being politically and socially embedded and needing to perform MSF’s principles in practice. As such, they embody the contradictions of MSF’s approach in North Kivu: a simultaneous need for operational ‘proximity’, as well as performative distance from everyday conflict processes.

Abstract:
AbstractOn 3 October 2015, the Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) Trauma Centre in Kunduz, Afghanistan was bombed during a US–Afghan joint military operation to retake the city. Even before that night, attacks on health-care facilities in war zones were already a worrying trend and a major concern for humanitarian organizations. Such attacks have led both MSF and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) to launch campaigns1 addressing the need for greater protection of the medical mission in situations of armed conflict. Nonetheless, the scale and specific context of the attack on the Kunduz Trauma Centre have given rise to various specific investigations2 and provoked many more questions that this article will explore. The article will delve into the “many mistakes” scenario that has been presented by the US investigation in order to critically analyze whether these mistakes may originate from either incorrect or biased interpretations or implementation of international humanitarian law.

Abstract:
Une Organisation Non Gouvernementale (ONG) doit concilier les contraintes de son environnement, les attentes de ses parties prenantes, et la mission sociale à l’origine de sa création et de sa culture organisationnelle, pour élaborer sa stratégie. Une articulation judicieuse de ses ressources et de ses compétences peut permettre à l’ONG d’améliorer sa performance en créant de nouvelles compétences au sein d’un processus récursif et adaptatif d’apprentissage organisationnel. Les ressources centrales d’une ONG sont les hommes et les femmes qui la constituent et font vivre sa mission sociale à travers leur engagement et leur adhésion à cette mission. Parmi ces ressources, nous nous sommes intéressés au personnel national, recruté directement dans les pays où l’ONG intervient. Nous avons en effet pu observer un changement des pratiques des ONG humanitaires françaises, qui tend vers une meilleure intégration de ce personnel national, aux niveaux administratif, opérationnel et associatif. Nous avons donc souhaité comprendre comment cette intégration pouvait permettre aux ONG humanitaires de renouveler leurs compétences au travers d’un processus de métissage et d’apprentissage organisationnel tout en améliorant leur performance organisationnelle. Pour mener cette étude, nous avons observé la mise en place d’une politique d’intégration du personnel national au sein d’une ONG humanitaire française, Médecins Sans Frontières
To develop its strategy, a humanitarian Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) needs to conciliate its stakeholders’ expectations, its founding social mission and organizational culture and the environment’s constraints. If it manages to articulate its resources and competences in a wise manner, an NGO can improve its performance by developing new competencies in a recursive and adaptive process of organizational learning. An NGO’s central resources lie in the men and women who constitute it and promote its social mission through their involvement and their faith in the mission. Among these resources, we focus on national staff, recruited directly in the countries where NGOs work. We have noticed a change in French humanitarian NGOs’ practices towards their national staff. These practices tend to be more integrative at administrative, operational and associative levels. We therefore wish to understand how this integration could help humanitarian NGOs renew and develop their competencies through an organizational learning and hybridization process. This integration could therefore contribute to improving their organizational performance. We chose to carry out a case study analysis of the French NGO Médecins Sans Frontières, which has implemented a new integration policy towards its national staff

Abstract:
To be a humanitarian aid worker [HAW] in the field entails working in a demanding environment, and in this milieu, interpersonal conflicts [IC] sometimes arise which may risk the entire project. The ones responsible for dealing with ICs, should they occur, are HAWs in management positions employed by various humanitarian organisations [HO]. However, the hypothesis presented in this thesis is that HAWs are not always provided with the training necessary. This thesis aims to critically analyse how HO prepare and train HAWs, specifically in IC management, and whether two significant HOs, Médecins Sans Frontières [MSF] and the International Federation of the Red Cross [IFRC], can be described as learning organisations [LO] according to Senge’s (1990) five disciplines. Through qualitative content analysis, involving interviews and literature reviews, the author seeks to identify training gaps, how MSF and IFRC can become LOs, and how these organisations would benefit from becoming LOs.  According to interview participants, the author found that more training would be beneficial, both for themselves and for MSF and IFRC, since many ICs go unmanaged. Furthermore, it was identified that MSF and IFRC had taken a few steps in a direction that could lead to them becoming LOs. However, more can be done, and through Senge’s disciplines, MSF and IFRC would benefit from more involved HAWs, improved wellbeing of HAWs, and possibly lower staff turnover.  In conclusion, the hypothesis of this thesis was proven to some extent. HAWs do receive training; however, more training can be provided. The wellbeing of HAWs is also a vital problem that HOs have to consider to lower retention rates, encourage their HAWs to stay employed, and further encourage learning within the organisations.

Abstract:
The aim of this study is to analyse how the concept of ‘women and children’ is represented bytwo humanitarian organisations; International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) andMédecins Sans Frontières (MSF). The analyses concludes that there is (still) an assumptionthat women have an inherent vulnerability and women are often described together with‘children’ as if they are one vulnerable group instead of two. This study suggests aproblematization of the concept since activities planned by humanitarian organisations mayhave a big impact on people’s lives when assuming one group to be more vulnerable thananother.

Abstract:
Lors de l’été 1968, des images d’enfants décharnés, souffrant de maladies dues à la malnutrition affluent dans les médias occidentaux. Elles proviennent de la région sud orientale de la Fédération du Nigeria, qui a déclaré son indépendance une année auparavant sous le nom de République du Biafra, où se déroule une guerre civile qui oppose les troupes fédérales aux indépendantistes biafrais. L’émotion suscitée en Occident par les représentations du conflit et de la famine qui l’accompagne engendre la mobilisation de diverses organisations humanitaires, qui mettent sur pied des opérations de secours internationales destinées aux populations civiles. Encore peu étudiées par l’historiographie, la crise du Biafra et les réponses qui y sont apportées par les acteurs occidentaux sont l’objet de cette thèse. La recherche examine tout d’abord comment une guerre civile africaine prend la dimension d’une crise humanitaire internationale. Pour ce faire, elle analyse tant la situation sur place que les acteurs de son internationalisation et ses représentations. Ensuite, afin d’appréhender les opérations de secours dans leur complexité la thèse étudie le processus d’élaboration et le déploiement des réponses occidentales à la crise, ainsi que leur réception au Nigeria dans un contexte post-colonial. Enfin, la thèse questionne les principaux éléments qui ont fait du Biafra un moment charnière de l’histoire de l’humanitaire et met en lumière les reconfigurations des discours et des pratiques de l’aide humanitaire qui s’opèrent à la fin des années 1960
In the summer of 1968, pictures of emaciated children, suffering from diseases due to malnutrition, poured in western medias. They came from the eastern region of the Federation of Nigeria, which had proclaimed its independence one year before and taken the name of the Republic of Biafra. War and famine that were taking place in the region generated widespread concern in the West, where humanitarian organizations decided to set up international relief operations to help alleviate the suffering of the civilian population. Still understudied by the historiography, the crisis in Biafra and the mobilization of western organizations are the subjects of this PhD. Firstly, the dissertation examines how an African civil war became an international humanitarian crisis. To this purpose, it analyses the situation in the ground, the actors of its internationalization and how it was represented. Secondly, in order to grasp the complexity of humanitarian aid, the dissertation studies the elaboration and the deployment of the relied operations, as well as their reception in Nigeria in a post-colonial context. Finally, the thesis questions why Biafra is usually considered as a turning point in the history of humanitarianism. By so doing, it sheds light on the reconfigurations of the discourses and practices of humanitarian aid that took place in the late 1960’s

Abstract:
Au cours des dernières années, le nombre de catastrophes naturelles a subi une augmentation effrayante partout dans le monde. Même si le nombre de décès déclarés a diminué sur les dernières années, le nombre de personnes affectées ne cesse pas d'augmenter, ayant un grand impact dans la façon dont les opérations d'aide humanitaire sont développées. L'aide humanitaire comprend une myriade d'acteurs parmi lesquels on trouve les donateurs, les agences d'aide, les organisations non-gouvernementales (ONG), les gouvernements et les prestataires de service logistique. Dans ce contexte, la logistique représente 80% des activités, et est impliquée dans les trois phases du cycle de la gestion des catastrophes. Dans l'industrie, logistique est considéré comme une source d'avantage concurrentiel, expliquant les différences de performance entre les entreprises. Pour le contexte humanitaire, la logistique a la capacité d'assurer le succès des opérations, de contribuer à la stratégie d'une organisation et permet aux bénéficiaires et aux donateurs de distinguer une ONG d'une autre. Cela est possible grâce au développement des compétences et capacités logistiques organisationnelles. L'objectif de cette thèse est donc d'identifier ces compétences et capacités logistiques organisationnelles qui peuvent assurer le succès des opérations humanitaires. À travers d'une étude de cas unique effectuée au sein de MSF Logistique, la centrale d'achat et d'approvisionnement de Médecins Sans Frontières, cette thèse fournit la preuve du rôle stratégique que la logistique joue dans les activités de l'organisation et propose un modèle de compétences et capacités logistiques pour le contexte humanitaire
Over the past years, the number of natural disasters reported has suffered a frightening increase all around the world. Even though the number of people reported killed has decreased on the last years, the number of people reported affected has augmented having a great impact in the relief operations undertaken. Humanitarian relief comprises a myriad of actors which include donors, aid agencies, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), governments and logistics providers. In this context, logistics accounts for 80% of the relief effort and is involved in all three of the disaster management phases. In industry, logistics is considered to be a source of competitive advantage, explaining the differences in performance among firms. Moving this to the humanitarian context, logistics has the capacity to ensure the success of the operations, to contribute to an organization's strategy, and allows beneficiaries and donors to distinguish an organization from another. This is only possible through the development of organizational logistics competences. The purpose of this thesis is thus to identify those organizational logistics competences and capabilities that can ensure the success of humanitarian relief operations. Through a single-embedded case study performed with MSF Logistique, the international logistics platform for Médecins Sans Frontières France, this thesis provides evidence of the strategic role that logistics plays in the organization's activities, and proposes a Logistics Capability and Competence Framework for Humanitarian Relief

Les trois ONG humanitaires (CARE International, CRS et MSF/F) qui sont intervenues au Burundi de 1993 à 2005 ont réalisé des projets importants pour le pays. Ces acteurs transnationaux sont financés par des Etats, des Organisations internationales et des donateurs privés. C’est ainsi que l’on peut les qualifier d’acteurs intermédiaires parce qu’ils sont soumis aux contraintes étatiques et transnationales. Les financements étatiques sont motivés par la volonté de pousser les ONG humanitaires à servir des intérêts nationaux des Etats-bailleurs tandis que le financement privé légitime leur nature apolitique tout en les obligeant à se comporter comme des entreprises commerciales. Nonobstant cette nature hybride, dans chaque ONG existent des agents philanthropiques, qui travaillent juste pour l’Humanitaire
The three humanitarian NGOs (CARE International, CRS and MSF/F) which have been operating in Burundi since 1993 to 2005 realized important projects for the country. These Transnational actors are funded by States, international organizations and private donators. That is why we can call them intermediate actors because they are submitted to governmental and transnational conditions. Static funding urges these NGOs to operate according to the national interests while private funding legitimates their transnational nature and justifies their “charity business”. Besides this hybrid nature, there are philanthropic agents in each of these three humanitarian NGOs

Abstract:
Première ONG de secours médical d'urgence, MSF est de ces organisations qui ont institutionnalisé la critique. Les courants sociologiques les plus opposés y ont vu une activité « extra - ordinaire» dont les ressorts seraient essentiellement idéels. Mettant à mal cette hypothèse unificatrice, MSF permet d'étudier l'ancrage social de ces pratiques. On étudie la construction par ses leaders d'une position d'avant-garde dans le champ humanitaire. Dotée d'un centre de recherche, MSF dispose de sa grammaire - entendue ici dans un sens métaphorique et de ses « grammairiens ». L'un dans l'autre, elle peut déployer de magistraux coups critiques comme l'arrêt de sa collecte pour le tsunami. L'analyse des dispositions et du charisme critiques du « Roi René )) des MSF, Rony Brauman, s'avère indispensable à la compréhension des « instances» associatives dédiées à cette activité. Elle repose aussi sur une répartition incertaine des espaces de travail et un ensemble de techniques de fragmentation du pouvoir. Après avoir analysé le «jeu du rappel à l'ordre )), on verra les MSF composer avec les attentes critiques de l'ONG. Ces différentes adaptations éclairent un cens critique qui n'est pas sans effet sur les opérations de MSF. La critique étant indissociable de l'exercice du pouvoir, son étude donne la clef d'une gouvernance interne ponctuée de« crises» et nourrie d'attachements puissants à MSF. Croisant sociologie des relations internationales, du militantisme et de la critique à l'appui de cette normalisation épistémologique, cette thèse repose sur une série d'entretiens et de discussions informelles, différents fonds d'archives et de nombreuses observations de type ethnographique
Médecins Sans Frontières is the first international medical emergency aid NGO and an organization that has institutionalized critical activity, a phenomenon that this thesis seeks to understand. The most opposite sociologies have studied criticism as an extra-ordinary practice which would be a matter of pure ideas. In contrast with this common frame of analysis, we explore its social rooting. We study the construction of an avant-garde position inside the humanitarian arena. With its center of reflexion, MSF has its own « grammar» (in a metaphoric sense) and its own grammarians. This specificity and its position allow it to play critical blows like the stop of its fund raising for the tsunami at the top of the mobilization (2005). We distinguished three devices underpinning criticism inside the NGO. Amazingly, the first one is a man: Rony Brauman. Understanding the institutionalization of criticism implies studying « Roi René» critical charisma. The second one, instances dedicated to criticism, can be considered as his heritage. The third one is an uncertain division of labor sometimes sustained by power fragmentation technologies. After analyzing the «game of the call to order», we then focus on different adaptations of MSF members to the NGO's critical expectation, examining the cost of criticism and its effects. Critique being inseparable from power, its study sheds light on MSF 's governance and its members ' strong commitment. This sociological normalization of critical practices, between sociology of international relations and collective action, is based on a corpus of interviews and discussions, various archive collections and ethnographical observations

Abstract:
AbstractMédecins Sans Frontières (MSF), or Doctors without Borders, was started by a few doctors and journalists in the 1970s. Today, MSF is a humanitarian actor to be reckoned with, with its emergency medicine expertise and its unique interpretation of the neutrality and independence principles. The organization has acted unconventionally in numerous humanitarian crises and criticized peer organizations in the sector. This nonconformity has never harmed MSF; the organization is highly respected by the general public. This chapter analyzes how MSF as a principled provocateur could evolve into a public guardian of humanitarian values. We posit that MSF’s controversial acts have become an integral part of its reputation; it is expected to go against the grain. However, in order to be credible, the organization works hard to uphold its ‘volunteer and humanitarian spirit’ and strives to be an effective and professional organization.
