- Summary
- Set in Haiti during the 2004 coup and aftermath, and enhanced by research conducted after the 2010 earthquake, this book analyzes the impact of official development aid on recipient nongovernmental organizations (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. He focuses on NGOs' roles as intermediaries in the contemporary world system, and shows how power works within the aid system as these intermediaries impose interpretations of unclear mandates down the chain- a process the author calls "trickle-down imperialism."--Publisher description
