Interpretative history of development and management studies that explains how non-governmental actors acquired prominence as private actors offering market-based solutions.
'Many contemporary accounts of NGOs have critiqued them as being either 'malign actors' or 'futile players'. However, both of these characterizations miss the context within which these organizations presently operate. In this excellent book, Srinivas takes a much more nuanced approach in examining the contexts that NGOs work in by employing the key concepts and practices of Development, Management, and Civil Society. This book takes you on a critical journey through the different historical stages of global capitalism by utilizing an analysis of colonialism, modernism and financial capitalism and their relationship to International Development. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the theories, practices and actions of NGOs more specifically and International Development more broadly.' Helen Yanacopulos, Professor, The University of British Columbia
