Mary Venner gave up a secure job and travelled to the other side of the world to work in foreign aid. Her work took her to places that are now daily headline news, including Ukraine, Afghanistan and Somalia. Where Are You This Time? provides a first-hand account of what life is like in these countries. With a wry sense of humour it describes the strange working conditions, the challenges of economic development, and the lively social life of expats living in places that tourists avoid.'…an important read for anyone hoping to work in development consulting or better understand it.'—Gordon Peake, DevPolicyBlog

The reconstruction of Kosovo after 1999 was one of the largest and most ambitious international interventions in a post-conflict country. The United Nations, other major multinational organisations and many large bilateral aid donors all played a role in restoring stability and establishing governance in the territory. This book looks beyond the apparently united and generally self-congratulatory statements of these international actors to examine what actually happened when they tried to work together in Kosovo to achieve this goal. It considers the interests and motivations, and the strengths and weaknesses of each of the major players and how they contributed to the creation of new institutions in public finance and public sector management.
