碩士 / 南華大學 / 非營利事業管理研究所 / 94 / Review of Major Recent Inrternational Disasters.International conflicts occur frequently. Political situations change rapidly with countries forming alliances that come and go, with war and massacre occurring often. People of the third world countries are particularly affected but also. America by the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the related anthrax attacks. The war of American and Iraq has led to an endless stream of cruel and ferocious incidents. Moreover the global greenhouse effect has led to an increase in natural disasters, for example: drought , flood , cyclones , landslides and mudflows, in addition to earthquakes etc, all of which wreak great havoc in many parts of the world. The number of global dead and wounded grows with each passing day These threats to global security and of various countries are becoming more changeable and complicated. Traffic in illegal weapons, illegal immigration and narcotics smuggling are run as a commercial enterprise. The chaos caused by war, famine, refugee''s going into exile, disease, lack of social security and effects on economic activity, etc. lead to a vicious cycle with no limit.
Given the cruel and turbulent international situation , if there is to be any hope of real peace in the world, international humanitarian organizations must step in. to render assistance.
Mounting a humanitarian rescue and relief operation in a disaster area is dangerous and difficult. Demarcation of national boundaries and ethnic groups can hinder the race against time and preventing deaths. Frequent trips to the disaster area can in themselves be dangerous. If we can set up high-efficiency use of manpower and resources in providing disaster relief we can reduce the time to make an assessment of the disaster and make the rescue work get twice the result with half the effort, and can combine various different kinds of resources , such as the strength of military affairs '' Military operation other than war ''.
In the face of the complicated and changeable international situation, various kinds of rescue mechanisms and organizations with different attitudes lead to the concept '' Military operation other than war '', which is to take the leading role and combine through an effective and strong Unit, the aim of which is to avoid the losses of personnel, goods and materials, and to complement other groups. The Army executes this difficult task sincerely and with " selfless characteristic ". This research discusses the role and function of the military unit in taking humanitarian action and outlines it’s operational limiting factors according to the present situation, and puts forward suggestions for change and improvement.
