Non-Governmental Development Organizations have seen turbulent
times over the decades; however, recent years have seen them grow
to occupy high-profile positions in the fight against poverty. They
are now seen as an important element of 'civil society', a concept
that has been given increasing importance by global policy makers.
This book has evolved during the course of that period to be a
prime resource for those working (or wishing to work) with and for
NGOs. The third edition of Non-Governmental Organizations,
Management and Development is fully updated and thoroughly
reorganized, covering key issues including, but not limited to,
debates on the changing global context of international development
and the changing concepts and practices used by NGOs. The
interdisciplinary approach employed by David Lewis results in an
impressive text that draws upon current research in non-profit
management, development management, public management and
management theory, exploring the activities, relationships and
internal structure of the NGO. This book remains the first and only
comprehensive and academically grounded guide to the issues facing
international development NGOs as they operate in increasingly
complex and challenging conditions around the world. It is the
perfect resource for students undertaking studies of NGOs and the
non-profit sector, in addition to being an excellent resource for
development studies students more generally.
