But how are these new global networks transforming the politics and power dynamics of humanitarian policy and practice? In \u003ci\u003eNew Humanitarianism and the Crisis of Charity\u003c\/i\u003e, Michael Mascarenhas considers that issue using water management projects in India and Rwanda as case studies. Mascarenhas analyzes the complex web of agreements —both formal and informal—that are made between businesses, governments, and aid organizations, as well as the contradictions that arise when capitalism meets humanitarianism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e 1.
