Peter W. Van Arsdale is senior lecturer at the Graduate School of International Studies and faculty advisor at the Center On Rights Development at the University of Denver.

The lives that Van Arsdale so eloquently describes in Forced to Flee… serve as an important reminder of the real trauma and 'spectacular violence' that many victims of human rights violations have suffered. His profound respect for those who have been subjected to the ugliest and most cruel forms of human interaction forms the basis for his approach to pragmatic humanitarianism. Where much has been made of the need to Do No Harm and to preserve neutrality, Van Arsdale's approach instead suggests that committed, compassionate, and constructive engagement to alleviate suffering is not only possible, it is essential.
