NGOs and Corporations by Michael Yaziji
We live in a period marked by the ascendency of corporations. At the same time, the number of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) has also rapidly increased. This book focuses on the dynamic interactions, both conflictual and collaborative, that exist between these two very different types of organization.
