"Part of every well-intentioned dollar you send to a war-torn, underdeveloped country is funding the sport utility vehicle of a recent college graduate and the rest is perpetuating an ethnic war that is at the source of the famine you want to help fight. Even though this is a blatant exaggeration, it is one that holds an essential truth." (HARVARD INTERNATIONAL REVIEW) This article examines the "other face of international humanitarian aid" and relays that "although humanitarian aid brings much needed short-term relief in moments of crisis, it often does more harm than good."
