Description:Why do people turn to personal connections to get things done? Exploring the role of favors in social welfare systems in postwar, postsocialist Bosnia and Herzegovina, this volume provides a new theoretical angle on links between ambiguity and power.

Instead, favors enabled the insertion of personal compassion into the heart of the organization of welfare.Managing Ambiguity follows how neoliberal insistence on local community, flexibility, and self-responsibility was translated into clientelist modes of relating and back, and how this fostered a specific mode of power.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
