Abstract:
Using Kosovo as a case study, the book illuminates the interplay of some of the most controversial concepts in postcolonial times, including humanitarian intervention, peacebuilding, nation-state building, and doing development in war torn states. A special focus is on development professionals, mandated to build peace and implement development projects in war-torn or failed states. The book seeks to uncover the complex nature of doing good for others, especially when development efforts are serving the political and economic interests of donor states and when the social status attained by the expatriate development workers tends to improve upon migrating to and working in war-torn states
Abstract:
Delo, ki črpa iz primera Kosova, osvetljuje nekatere najbolj kontroverzne koncepte postkolonialne dobe: izgradnjo miru, formiranje nacionalne-države in implementacijo razvoja na povojnih območjih. Posebej so poudarjeni razvojni delavci, ki ohranjajo mir in izvajajo razvojne projekte. Knjiga razkriva kompleksno naravo sintagme opravljati dobra dela za druge, še posebej, ko tako imenovani razvoj služi političnim in ekonomskim interesom države donatorke in ko mednarodni razvojni delavci, migranti z dobrimi deli utrjujejo svoj družbeni status
