"[A] thoughtful and intelligent analysis of the social, political,
and economic trends shaping the role of international NGOs in the
fight against poverty.... It concisely and convincingly makes the
case for fundamental change in the way civil society organizes
itself to meet the challenges of the 21st century." - Robert
Glasser, CARE International
"The INGOs' role in global governance is too important to be
allowed to ossify, atrophy, or diminish—change is an imperative.
Paul Ronalds points the way forward." - Greg Bourne,
WWF-Australia
"Richly informative, full of useful facts and figures, and an
incisive and clear-headed analysis for any NGO leader wanting to

needs to be done to ensure that NGOs remain relevant to their
mission." - Marc Purcell, Australian Council for International
