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)
