International Aid and the Making of a Better World - Reflexive Practice

"This book examines what happens when we try to improve people's lives in far-away countries and warns how self-deception may construct obstacles to the very change desired. It considers the challenge to traditional aid practices posed by new donors likeBrazil, China and India who speak of history, culture and relationships.
