Democracy Struggles: NGOs and the Politics of Aid in Serbia


Add your own review!

Overview

Tracing the boom of local NGOs since the 1990s in the context of the global political economy of aid, current trends of neoliberal state restructuring, and shifting post-Cold War hegemonies, this book explores the associational revolution in post-socialist, post-conflict Serbia. Looking into the country's transition through a global and relational analytical prism, the ethnography unpacks the various forms of dispossession and inequality entailed in the democracy-promotion project.
