International development stakeholders harness communication with two outstanding purposes: to///////do good/, via communication for development and media assistance, and to///////communicate do-gooding/, via public relations. This newly published collection///////,/edited by Florencia Enghel and Jessica Noske-Turner,unpacks the ways in which different efforts to do good via communication are combined with attempts to look good in the eyes of donor constituencies at large, or among specific audiences, such as journalists or policy makers. With contributions fromMel Bunce, Peter da Costa, Lauren Kogen, Vinod Pavarala, Wendy Quarry, Ricardo Ramirez, Martin Scott, Jo Tacchi, Silvio Waisbord, Karin Gwinn Wilkins, Ben Wilson, Kate Wright and the editors,the bookinterrogates the tensions generated when uses of communication to do good and to look good overlap within international development cooperation (see the Table of Contents below)
