The Political Economy of NGOs: State Formation in Sri Lanka and Bangladesh
Autor Jude L. Fernandoen Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 iul 2011
The book examines how a diverse group of NGOs have shaped state formation in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. It argues that, rather than influencing state formation for the better, NGOs have been integrated into the capitalist system and their language adopted to give traditional exploitative social relations a transformative appearance.
This enlightening study will give pause to those who see NGOs as drivers of true social change and will encourage students of development studies to make a deeper analysis of state formation.
