Through a rigorous analysis of donor-driven aid in Guinea and Sierra Leone, Michelle Reddy argues that preferences for apolitical, Western-style NGOs undermined local crisis-response capacity, notably during the Ebola outbreak. She links these dynamics to democratic backsliding, urging a critical reassessment of aid paradigms.
