Description
"In Global Humanitarianism: NGOs and the Crafting of Community, author D. Robert DeChaine explores a narrative common to the nongovernmental organization community about the promise and confusion of living together in postmodern times. Palpable in their affective admixture of idealism, fear, hope, anger, and uncertainty, the protagonists of the story are humanitarian social actors, engaged in a vivid social drama. Their audience, as made apparent by DeChaine's at scholarship, is intimately engaged in the drama as well."--Jacket.
