This volume examines how local actors respond to Africa's high
dependence on donor health funds. It focuses on the large infusion
of donor money to address HIV and AIDS into Malawi and Zambia and
the subsequent slow-down in that funding after 2009. How do local
people respond to this dynamic aid architecture and the myriad of
opportunities and constraints that accompany it? This book
conceptualizes dependent agency, and the condition in which local
actors can simultaneously act and be dependent, and investigates
conditions under which dependent agency occurs. Drawing upon
empirical data from Malawi and Zambia collected between 2005 and
2014, the work interrogates the nuanced strategies of dependent
agency: performances of compliance, extraversion, and resistance
below the line. The findings elucidate the dynamic interactions
between actors which often occur "off stage" but which undergird
macro-level development processes.
