This course examines the US military tradition of humanitarian aid, civil reconstruction, and economic/rural development, through case studies from the last two decades. We study the history, policies, and doctrines that made this work possible, but our primary focus will be to ask and, collaborating with practitioners, learn methods, ethics, precedents, and insights for international development from this largely neglected tradition.
