After setting out the historical background of NGO work in India and its relationship with the state, he examines case studies from rural Karnataka and urban Pune, Maharashtra. He then analyzes the findings of field research consisting of interviews with 80 self help groups as to what their members saw as empowering before attempting to identify the factors that lead to strong empowerment outcomes, particularly as related to the question of NGO accountability to recipient groups. Finally, he considers implications for NGO practice. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
