First Do No Harm: Medical Ethics in International Humanitarian Law
Although working on the sidelines of armed conflicts, physicians are often at the centre of attention. First Do No harm: Medical Ethics in International Humanitarian Law was born from the occasionally controversial role of physicians in recent armed conflicts and the legal and ethical rules that frame their actions. While international humanitarian, human rights and criminal law provide a framework of rights and obligations that bind physicians in armed conflicts, the reference to ‘medical ethics’ in the laws of armed conflict adds an extra-legal layer. In analysing both the legal and the ethical framework for physicians in armed conflict, the book is invaluable to practitioners and legal scholars alike.

Zwischen Arbeitseinsatz und Rassenpolitik
Marcel Brüntrup untersucht die Entstehung der nationalsozialistischen »Ausländerkinder-Pflegestätten« im Kontext von Zwangsarbeit und Rassenpolitik. In den letzten Jahren der nationalsozialistischen Herrschaft entstand im Deutschen Reich ein flächendeckendes Netz improvisierter Betreuungseinrichtungen für die Kinder ausländischer Zwangsarbeiterinnen. In diesen euphemistisch als »Ausländerkinder-Pflegestätten« bezeichneten Heimen verloren zehntausende Kinder aufgrund unzureichender Versorgung, Hygiene und Pflege ihr Leben – das gewollte Ergebnis einer menschenfeindlichen Politik, die auf die restlose Ausbeutung der Arbeiterinnen und die gewaltsame rassische Homogenisierung des deutschen Volkes abzielte. Parallel dazu sollten erzwungene Abtreibungen an osteuropäischen Zwangsarbeiterinnen die Geburt »rassisch unerwünschter« Kinder von vornherein verhindern. Marcel Brüntrup beleuchtet die Entstehungsgeschichte der »Ausländerkinder-Pflegestätten« sowie der damit zusammenhängenden Maßnahmen und liefert Einblicke in die Lebenswirklichkeiten betroffener Zwangsarbeiterinnen und ihrer Kinder.
