This book takes a wonderful approach. Long decades of debate and reform of development cooperation have shown that usually the discussion continues to take the international aid system as its point of departure. This book decentres international efforts by focusing on civil society in Asia, Africa and the Middle East, to understand how they reshape and wish to further reshape international collaboration for development, and what implications this has for roles, relations and processes of development. Dorothea Hilhorst, professor of humanitarian studies at the International Institute for Social Studies of Erasmus University in The Hague, The Netherlands This timely book enters the fray at a time when the world is struggling to tackle the multiple and overlapping crises that the current system is generating. What do we learn by starting our inquiries with marginalised views, voices and expertise emanating from the Global South? All the authors in this volume invite us to re-imagine how we 'know' the world, which is the first step to tackling these persistent global challenges. Lata Narayanaswamy, Associate Professor in the Politics of Global Development, University of Leeds, UK
