  Summary of content:What is "humanitarian" operation? If you ask those humanitarian people,Their answer is usually: humanitarianism refers to neutral、Provide assistance to people who are in crisis in fairness and independence,Salvation Life。If you look at the literature of humanitarianism from a critical perspective,You will find that the answer depends on an equal relationship。In this article,I plan to open up a new idea between these two perspectives。Starting from critical theory,I think it is best to understand humanitarianism as a series of social relations,instead of a series of action。Starting from the standard view of the humanitarian department,I think humanitarianism is also based on the ethics of results,And this will make our attention point back to the result,instead of returning to the relationship。I will use the concept of parentalism to explore this "third road"。We can understand parentalism as an attempt to use one behavior to replace the judgment of another actor,This is for the latter's maximum interest、Welfare or Happiness。Although people have made various definitions to parentalism,But these definitions have the following constituent elements: care ethics、Unwavering relationship、Judgment alternative and result ethics。I think further,Although these constituent elements have always existed,But they have not been fully recognized in the relationship between humanitarian and the recipients。[Translated by Shen Xiaolei]
