New. This book traces the recent growth in NGO advocacy. Barbara Rugendyke presents empirical findings about the impacts of NGO advocacy activity on the policies and practices of global and regional institutions.

This volume is a useful aid to researchers, students and lecturers and to development practitioners interested in advocacy as a development strategy.
