The case studies, guidelines and analyses presented in this book look more closely at the complexities involved in the NGO-government dialogue. The issue of governance underpins much of the writing, for in coming to terms with their roles in relation to the state, NGOs have increasingly assumed a political function: that of challenging and redressing the status quo in favour of people-centrered approaches to development.
