Complex emergencies (CEs) have been the most common human-generated disaster of the past two decades. These internal conflicts and associated acts of genocide have been poorly understood and poorly managed. This article provides an epidemiological background and understanding of developing and developed countries, and chronic or smoldering countries' CEs, and explains in detail the prevailing models of response seen by the international community. Even though CEs are declining in number, they have become more complex and dangerous. The UN Charter reform is expected to address internal conflicts and genocide but may not provide a more effective and efficient means to respond.
复杂紧急情况（CEs）是过去二十年来最常见的人为灾难。这些内部冲突及相关的种族灭绝行为一直未得到充分理解和妥善处理。本文提供了关于发展中国家、发达国家以及长期处于冲突或动荡状态国家的复杂紧急情况的流行病学背景及认识，并详细解释了国际社会普遍采用的应对模式。尽管复杂紧急情况的数量在减少，但它们变得更加复杂和危险。预计联合国宪章改革将解决内部冲突和种族灭绝问题，但可能无法提供更有效和高效的应对手段。
