This course provides a critical introduction to NGOs, the nature of social protest, how they have interacted and influenced each other, and how they have globalised. It questions the perception that NGOs offer an alternative to state-led development models, considers the concept of humanitarian intervention in diverse contexts and explores how social movements are posing a challenge to neoliberalism.
