This volume provides a critical and stimulating overview of
research on Non-governmental Organisations (NGOs). While it notes
that the definition of NGOs is contested, and can include both
business and national groups, it focuses primarily on international
NGOs engaged with human rights, social and environmental concerns,
and aid and development issues. The Handbook of Research on NGOs
features contributions from Peter Willetts, Tom Davies, Bob
Reinalda, Jutta Joachim and other key international authors. It
provides readers with a series of thought provoking essays on both
the general aspects of NGOs and significant issues of particular
concern. This Handbook places NGOs in both historical and
contemporary contexts, making it a valuable read for academics and
research students seeking a detailed survey of the field. NGO
practitioners looking to understand their operating environment in
greater depth would also benefit from reading this important book.
