I think we have this perception that all people that kill do it because they are bad people and want to see others suffer and although this might sometimes be the case, it doesn't always hold true. In some cases people aren't aware of the impact of their actions because it's something that they've either been accustomed to and a culture they've been brought up with and might not know what's considered 'right' or 'wrong'.

This is kind of what we've been talking about for a while. Effective solutions are almost never brought about by people who are not familiar with the context of the situation, and this is especially clear when in comes to international aid.

This quote reveals the central thesis and a main topic of conversation about this book from previous classes - discussing the imperfections of aid and how it can do more harm than good.

quote reveals the central thesis bc talks about how ultimately aid organizations are willing to compromise integrity to further their place in the competition. kind of connects back to the quote at the beginning of the chapter about lions

Connects to our previous discussion about how responding to international conflicts by supporting local organizations, people, and beliefs is an effective strategy (v.s military, education...)

Oftentimes we naively rush into what we think of as "solutions". We don't see all the harm our trial and error fixes cause for these suffering countries.

Solutions with inherent flaws or solutions that may have worked at a certain point in time should be adjusted. It is important to continuously reanalyze and adjust according to the current situation.

"A certain amount of 'reassignment' of donated good is unavoidable, and even accepted as normal...And only the custodians of imperialism would presume that impoverished families had neither the right nor the reason to resell handouts they felt they could do without." (107)

This was something that had never really crossed my mind when considering aid--I think I just assumed that people who receive supplies like food, water, and clothing would use it for themselves. Instead, it makes a lot more sense that there would be a market for these goods, since sometimes, people would rather have money and do what they personally want with it.

- This quote connects to Samantha Nutt's very prominent argument throughout the book. Saying that Westernized countries feel the need to help and save other countries that are struggling, however, their assistance isn't always wanted and often has great consequences than solving problems.

I had never thought that NGOs would use this kind of thinking as a marketing tool. However, I would disagree with her approach. I think if we don't go in with the mindset that every little bit helps then we are worse off. Although the money may be going to the organizations themselves and not the crisis areas, at least people are aware that they can have impact (even though it may not be as effective as they think).

- this is a new idea for me because I hadn't thought about this before. The effects and unintended consequences are actually quite harmful.
