GOING GLOBAL: TRANSFORMING RELIEF AND DEVELOPMENT NGOS
Based on a unique inside perspective, this is the first book-length comprehensive study of the big Northern-based international relief and development NGOs. Lindenberg and Bryant show how these organizations are managing the transformative changes globalization demands, how NGOs themselves are organizing on a global basis, and how they are responding to new challenges of accountability, evaluation and organizational learning. The authors examine the growing significance for NGOs of complex emergencies, peacebuilding and advocacy work, as these new contexts grow in importance compared with traditional development project work. ISBN 1-56549-135-1.

The authors base their findings on unique group discussions held by NGO presidents and CEOs in a series of retreats, and through extensive international fieldwork. As well as presenting the view "from the driver's seat" of these organizations, they offer their own ethnological perspectives and commentary, including thoughts on issues which remain to be explored.
This book will be invaluable to anyone studying nonprofit management issues in general, as well as the specific challenges faced by relief and development NGOs.
