While humanitarian actors remain hesitant and somewhat suspicious to legal regulation, litigation, and lawyers, the sector is going through a process of juridification: the law regulates more activities, is more often used to solve conflicts, and the legal profession is getting more involved in the nuts and bolts of humanitarian lawyering. Most importantly, individuals in crisis and aid workers increasingly see themselves as legal subjects – whether as workers, rights-holders, or customers. My objective in this blog is to encourage the humanitarians to deal with these developments more comprehensively. Moreover, this blog post takes stock of the ambivalence to law and emergent shifts in the sector and calls for international law scholars to pay more attention.
