在整个发展中世界，非政府组织参与了越来越多的政策干预的各个方面。捐助界为这一战略提供了大量支助。该战略的一个主要假设是，非政府组织更多地参与政策进程将导致更多的资源分配给穷人，并将促进建立一个更具包容性和平等性的政策进程。在这里，非政府组织参与一个重要的土地再分配政策倡议是用来检查这两个假设。虽然有强有力的证据表明，由于非政府组织的参与，更多的土地被重新分配给了穷人，但决定土地分配的实际机制或程序并不是包容各方或完全平等的。这种矛盾心理是对发展思维和实践所依据的天真乐观主义和简化假设的及时批评。版权所有（C）2002约翰威利父子有限公司
Throughout the developing world, Non Governmental Organisations (NGOs) are involved in various aspects of an increasing number of policy interventions. The donor community has lent considerable support to this strategy. One of the key assumptions behind the strategy is that the greater involvement of NGOs in policy processes will result in more resources being distributed to the poor, and will also facilitate the establishment of a policy process which is more inclusive and egalitarian. Here the involvement of NGOs in an important land redistribution policy initiative is used to examine both these assumptions. While there is strong evidence that more land was redistributed to the poor as a result of NGO involvement, the actual mechanism or process for deciding the distribution of land was not found to be all inclusive or completely egalitarian. This ambivalence serves as a timely critique to the naive optimism and simplified assumptions underpinning development thinking and practice. Copyright (C) 2002 John Wiley Sons, Ltd.
