This book presents this complex and controversial debatable issue in a comparative framework of developing countries in general and Nepal in particular. The context of the book is wide ranging covering almost all the aspects relating to the dynamics of NGOs in socio-economic development of developing countries. "The book will generate greater interest among the academicians, social workers and activists, researchers, students and policy-makers in finding some practical and strategic questions on the dynamics of NGOs in developing countries which are socially sound and economically viable for long-tern sustainability of social sector development."
