"A most welcome addition to the growing call to rethink this whole dimension of international relations.--John Berry, professor emeritus, Queen's University, Canada" "This approachable and imaginative book... deserves to be, and I am sure will be, read by many working in international aid worldwide.--Professor Adrian Furnham, University College London" "At last! A book that addresses the psychological politics braided through civil society, governmental and multilateral agencies involved in aid. I highly recommend it.--A.K. Dube, Secretariat of the African Decade for Persons with Disability" "Challenging, authoritative and engaging--Mary Robinson, founder and chair, Realizing Rights" "The Aid Triangle is a thought-provoking book that poses key questions about the nature and mechanisms of development.--Professor Alastair Ager, Global Health Initiative, Columbia University" "The Aid Triangle focuses on the human dynamics of international aid and illustrates how the aid system incorporates power relationships, and therefore relationships of dominance. Using the concept of a triangle of dominance, justice and identity, this timely work explains how the experience of injustice is both a challenge and a stimulus to personal, community and national identity, and how such identities underlie the human potential that international aid should seek to enrich." "This insightful new critique provides for the reader an innovative and constructive framework for producing more empowering and more effective aid."--Jacket.
