Steve Corbett and Brian Fikkert, When Helping Hurts: Alleviating Poverty Without Hurting the Poor... and Yourself, Chicago, IL: Moody Publishers, 2009 


가부장적인 온정주의, 후견인이 되려는 태도를 피하라 

Avoid Paternalism. Do not do things for people that they can do for themselves. (1) resource paternalism, (2) spiritual paternalism, (3) knowledge paternalism, (4) labor paternalism, (5) managerial paternalism.  

Knowledge paternalism occurs when we assume that we have all the best ideas about how to do things. As a result, the materially poor need us to think for them concerning the best way to plant crops, to operate their businesses, or to cure diseases… But we must recognize that the materially poor also have unique insights into their own cultural contexts and are facing circumstances that we do not understand very well. (116)
