Democracy Struggles: NGOs And The Politics Of Aid In Serbia Hardcover 1

Theodora Vetta

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 nation'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.
