Amateurs without Borders examines the rise of new actors in the
international development world: volunteer-driven grassroots
international nongovernmental organizations. These small aid
organizations, now ten thousand strong, sidestep the world of
professionalized development aid by launching projects built around
personal relationships and the skills of volunteers. This book
draws on fieldwork in the United States and Africa, web data, and
IRS records to offer the first large-scale systematic study of
these groups. Amateurs without Borders investigates the aspirations
and limits of personal compassion on a global scale.
