Killing with Kindness: Haiti, International Aid, and NGOs

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Set in Haiti following the 2004 coup and enhanced by research carried out after the 2010 earthquake, Killing with Kindness analyses the impact of official development aid on recipient NGOs and their relationships with local communities. It offers rich enthnographic comparisons of two Haitian women's NGOs working in HIV/AIDS prevention and examines participation and autonomy as well as donor policies that inhibit these goals.
