This is an invaluable resource to anyone studying general nonprofit management issues, as well as those studying the specific challenges of relief and development organizations. Boasting a unique insiders' perspective, it is the first book-length study of the largest Northern-based international relief and development NGOs. Drawing on extensive fieldwork and candid group discussions with leaders in the nonprofit sector, Marc Lindenberg and Coralie Bryant explore the implications of globalization for the goals, programs, processes, and staff of international relief and development NGOs.
