This article focuses on the humanitarian non-governmental organization (NGO) CARE, Inc., and its transformation from a temporary non-profit agency working in post-war relief to Europe, to a permanent humanitarian enterprise delivering food aid and technical assistance to the so-called ‘developing world’. It analyses CARE’s shift from its early days as an American voluntary agency delivering food and consumer products (donated by private individuals in America) to individuals in Europe to a large NGO that co-operated closely with the US government in food-aid distribution to the Global South. Its expansion and professionalization was embedded in the development of new forms of public-private co-operation in humanitarian affairs, as well as in the overall setting of an emerging competitive ‘humanitarian charity market’ in the non-profit sector. In order to expand its organization and mission CARE implemented new and innovative business strategies and fostered the increasing ‘managerialization’ of its humanitarian activities. The article stresses the economic dimension of NGO activity as one perspective (among others) that helps us to better understand the complex dynamics of the ‘rise’ of humanitarian non-state players during the twentieth century.

This book provides a historical account of the non-governmental organization CARE, one of the largest humanitarian NGOs worldwide. Beginning in the 1940s, the author analyzes CARE’s history, taking into account both the organization’s specific development and general trends of humanitarian history throughout the second half of the twentieth century. She provides an intriguing perspective on one of the most innovative and fast-growing private humanitarian players in the field of global hunger relief, and analyzes CARE’s intricate relations to international governments, NGOs and corporate players in the United States and beyond. Readers interested in international relations and humanitarian hunger prevention are provided with fascinating insights into the economic and business-related aspects of non-governmental politics, fundraising and philanthropic giving in this field. The book also offers an intriguing account of CARE’s drive toward organizational size, economic growth and expansion into new fields of service, from individual CARE packages to Europeans to large-scale school-feeding projects and development aid. The author gives centre stage to the individuals and groups that have shaped CARE’s history since the end of the Second World War. The book is an important contribution to the growing field of humanitarian history. Not only does it contribute to ongoing research about the rise of NGOs in the international realm, it also offers very rich empirical material on the political implications of private and governmental international aid in a world marked by the Cold War order, decolonialization processes and the struggle of so-called third world countries to catch up with Western industrialized countries and modern consumer societies.

Why do non-governmental organizations (NGOs) grow — single organizations as well as the whole NGO sector as such?1 Why do all of us know names like CARE, Oxfam, World Vision, or Doctors without Borders; and why do we consider these organizations as influential, large, and powerful players in international relations when almost all of them are -historically speaking — "organizational babies" compared at least to other institutions such as the Catholic Church or certain craftsmen's guilds? When we think about NGOs today we seldom wonder what NGOs are, let alone where they came from; in the twenty first century NGOs are part of everyday life, and it has been said that the "acronym NGO has been elevated from a code word used by a sizeable but dispersed coterie of development practitioners, aid agency staff, and academics to a term of which politicians and media people around the world have become increasingly fond".2 We read about the work of NGOs in magazines or daily papers; we know — or believe we know — what their particular missions are all about and, in many cases, we even give donations and support their work. Indeed, any civil society reaction to the 2004 Tsunami, to Hurricane Kathrina (2005), or to any of the latest Sahelian droughts would have been virtually unthinkable without humanitarian NGOs serving as proxies or liaison between governments, and — on a more personal level – between those in need and those who are ready to lend a hand.KeywordsExecutive DirectorNonprofit SectorVoluntary AgencyPrivate ContributionGlobal Civil SocietyThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.

This book provides a historical account of the NGO Cooperative for American Remittances to Europe (CARE) as one of the largest humanitarian NGOs worldwide from 1945 to 1980. Readers interested in international relations and humanitarian hunger prevention are provided with fascinating insights into the economic and business related aspects of Western non-governmental politics, fundraising and philanthropic giving in this field. The book also offers rich empirical material on the political implications of private and governmental international aid in a world marked by the order of the Cold War, and decolonialization processes. It elaborates the struggle of so called "Third World Countries" to catch up with modern Western consumer societies. In order to do justice to CARE's growing dimensions and to try to make sense of the various challenges arising from international operations, the book contains five main chapters on CARE's organizational development, with three case studies. It tells CARE's story on two different yet connected levels. First, it tells the story as a history of individuals and their interactions, conflicts, initiatives, and alliances within CARE and second as an organizational history focusing on institutional networks, CARE's role in international diplomacy. By the start of the 1960s CARE's strategically planned transformation into a development-oriented agency was in full swing. With United States Agency for International Development (USAID), Food for Peace, and the Peace Corps, several new government agencies in the development assistance sector were founded that offered potential junctions and opportunities for cooperation for CARE and the voluntary agencies in general.

This essay focuses on the short period of cooperation between the private humanitarian non-profit organization Cooperative for American Relief Everywhere, Inc. (CARE) and the new US government volunteer service agency, the Peace Corps, in the early 1960s. It describes CARE’s role as a private midwife to this new governmental player and traces the reasons for both the rise and the demise of the initially promising public–private partnership in development aid in Colombia. The essay thus analyzes the conditions that allowed (and ultimately hindered) genuine processes of transfer of expertise between private and governmental players in a field that was just developing.

Food aid for hungry people is not a modern phenomenon. The transport of supplemental food to areas affected by temporary or chronic food scarcity has been a part of state-level diplomacy since antiquity. The second half of the Twentieth century has seen the rise of a new and broader food aid regime, however: Marked by growing Cold War tensions, global economic disparities, and the rise of development thinking, food aid (often from unsellable food surplus) emerged as a new international transfer regime between the US and the «developing nations». The actual programs were often carried out by private players. As early as during WWI private voluntary agencies started to cooperate with the US government in humanitarian food distribution programs to hungry people abroad. This article takes a closer look at these programs tracing their development from the war and inter-war period to the aid endeavor during WWII and into the Fifties and Sixties when food aid schemes were significantly professionalized. It is argued here that the relationship between the US government, recipients and private voluntary agencies entered into a new phase after the end of WWI as public private partnerships in food aid distribution turned from a temporary tool for ad-hoc relief and surplus reduction into more permanent and highly subsidized institutions within the official framework of US foreign and agricultural policy.
