Person
Betcy Jose holds both a J.D. from the University of Houston Law Center and a Ph.D. from the University of Pittsburgh. Prior to entering academia, she worked with refugees and those seeking political asylum in the United States. Her academic work builds on her practitioner experience to explore how actors' efforts to shape global norms, including those codified in international law, impact both the content of humanitarian action and its subjects. In this vein, she has explored contestation in the civilian immunity norm prior to its codification in international law (in Montesinos' Legacy: Defining and Defending Human Rights for 500 Years , eds. by Edward C. Lorenz, Dana E. Aspinall, and J. Michael Raley) and contestation over the practice of targeted killing ("Not Completely the New Normal: How Human Rights Watch Tried to Suppress the Targeted Killing Norm" in Contemporary Security Policy and "Bin Laden's Targeted Killing and Emerging Norms" in Critical Studies onTerrorism ). She is currently exploring whether Russia's actions in Crimea may be avenue in which it contests the humanitarian intervention norm.

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
