Reviews

'Challenging and ambitious, this book provides both an empirical and a theoretical corrective to dominant accounts of corruption in Africa. Bringing the messy reality of national NGOs to life, Routley shows how their engagement in 'grey practices' to 'do good' cannot be reduced to corruption but is better understood as a form of hybridity and a skillful negotiation of their complex position between the local and the global.' - Rita Abrahamsen, University of Ottawa, Canada
