Volunteering improves inner character, builds community, cures poverty, and prevents crime. We've all heard this kind of empowerment talk from nonprofit and government-sponsored civic programs. But what do these programs really accomplish? In Making Volunteers, Nina Eliasoph offers an in-depth, humorous, wrenching, and at times uplifting look inside youth and adult civic programs. She reveals an urgent need for policy reforms in order to improve these organizations and shows that while volunteers learn important lessons, they are not always the lessons that empowerment programs aim to teach. With short-term funding and a dizzy mix of mandates from multiple sponsors, community programs develop a complex web of intimacy, governance, and civic life. Eliasoph describes the at-risk youth served by such programs, the college-bound volunteers who hope to feel selfless inspiration and plump up their resums, and what happens when the two groups are expected to bond instantly through short-term projects. She looks at adult "plug-in" volunteers who, working in after-school programs and limited by time, hope to become like beloved aunties to youth. Eliasoph indicates that adult volunteers can provide grassroots support but they can also undermine the family-like warmth created by paid organizers. Exploring contradictions between the democratic rhetoric of empowerment programs and the bureaucratic hurdles that volunteers learn to navigate, the book demonstrates that empowerment projects work best with less precarious funding, more careful planning, and mandatory training, reflection, and long-term commitments from volunteers. Based on participant research inside civic and community organizations, Making Volunteers illustrates what these programs can and cannot achieve, and how to make them more effective.
1、適閤喜歡腹誹的人士;2、反思瞭亞當斯等美國文化的優良傳統為何無法在今天流行的“賦權項目”中得以延續;3、反復提及的問題:長期穩定投入的缺失、誌願活動與政治的分離、太要麵子!4、結論裏強調草根活動反而要更注重抽象知識,很有價值;5、美國誌願者真沒那麼差,用民族誌來黑人手法瞭得。

評分從未見過如此腹黑的社會學傢、嘲諷派師母。對賦權組織的多處本質矛盾看得非常透徹-1幫助底層卻迴避直言底層(修辭);2幫助他人的白人同學與被幫助的黑人同學(身份定義目的);3舉辦活動要震撼靈魂的改變性又要簡單易上手(活動形式);4永遠在項目開始前要申請經費並展現所謂的成果(經費申請);5活動主題和形式隨著經費而變動(經費來源);6誌願者不固定,無法建立長久關係,負麵效應反而極大(人員流動性);7迴避討論政治,不切入社會問題背後的深層因素(去政治化);8誌願者與被幫助者無法共情,誌願者想要收獲感恩所以選擇容易幫助的對象(誌願者目的)9倡導文化多元性又對弱勢族群強調文化保護主義(定位不清);10慶祝賦權實質掩蓋文化差異的矛盾(目的大一統)。這本書有必要翻譯成中文讓國內的NGO和誌願者組織工作者讀。M

評分前兩部分和中國的現實貼閤,尤其是各種短期的支教類NGO,混閤著階級差異的大學生跑去支援欠發達地區的學生,學生可能受傷,誌願者和主辦也撕。最後的多元文化社區可能錶現的弱一點,不過中國對community也有執念,尤其是鄉建和社區建設這樣,而且,empowerment的口號也越來越常見瞭,在中國語境下是“授人以魚不如授人以漁”的可持續自主發展,我想應該不是排斥遠方的專傢,或許是建立在資源配置不公會長期存在的預期上等等。作者樂觀的態度很贊,因為過於透徹的理解自己處境,有時候反而會讓人失能,完全無力自拔。
