Reseña del libro "Intersections of Faith and Development in Local and Global Contexts"

Focuses on anthropological analyses of and engagements with Christian faith-based organizations (FBOs). Examines the varied and shifting meanings of religiosity, volunteerism, "doing good," development, charity, and justice Calls for a greater understanding of the macro-level promises and pitfalls of increasing reliance on FBOs to design and deliver social services and development Redresses the imbalance of anthropological studies that have focused on the role of secular NGOs
