Patronage or Partnership brings a new perspective to the subject of
building local capacities in emergency and post-emergency
situations. Many relief programs remain characterized by
externality: in their funding, accountabilities, approach to
management, and dependence upon expatriate staff. Strengthening
local capacity is easier said than done, and there are real
tradeoffs between outsiders doing something in the midst of an
emergency, on the one hand, and building longer-term local skills,
on the other. By critically examining the dilemma from local
perspectives in case studies from Mozambique, Bosnia, Sierra Leone,
Sri Lanka, Haiti and Guatemala, this book finds real hope and
possibilities amidst the prevalling rhetoric and confusion.
