For some time, the impact of counterterrorism (CT) measures and sanctions on humanitarian action did not attract the attention that it merited. However, owing to a surge in awareness of this issue over the past two years, the fact that CT measures and sanctions can have negative consequences for principled humanitarian action is now widely accepted by a broad range of actors, and is supported by a strong body of research identifying and analyzing these impacts. This article adds to this existing work by examining recent developments related to this issue. It looks at the impact of growing risk aversion in relation to CT measures and sanctions among donors, humanitarian organizations and other actors on principled humanitarian action, and highlights recent efforts to address and mitigate these impacts. The central argument is that CT and sanctions risks cannot be eliminated from humanitarian action. As such, policy change is needed to protect principled humanitarian action from further detrimental impacts and to ensure that people can access the assistance they need, regardless of where they are located.

政治和原则:反恐措施和制裁对有原则的人道主义行动的影响

一段时间以来,反恐(CT)措施和制裁对人道主义行动的影响并没有引起应有的关注。然而,由于过去两年对这一问题的认识激增,反恐措施和制裁可能对有原则的人道主义行动产生负面影响这一事实现在已被广泛的行动者广泛接受,并得到了一个强大的机构的支持研究识别和分析这些影响。本文通过检查与此问题相关的最新发展来补充现有工作。它着眼于捐助者、人道主义组织和其他行为者对反恐措施和制裁的日益增加的风险规避对有原则的人道主义行动的影响,并强调了最近为解决和减轻这些影响所做的努力。中心论点是,不能从人道主义行动中消除反恐和制裁风险。因此,需要改变政策以保护有原则的人道主义行动免受进一步的有害影响,并确保人们无论身在何处都能获得所需的援助。
