Includes bibliographical references. NGO literature is widely dispersed in numerous publications and often laborious to find. This article attempts to enhance understanding of development NGO performance by collating and discussing influencing factors. A systematic review of academic journal articles, published between 1996 and 2008, identified 31 relevant papers. Findings on facilitators and constraints are presented then discussed from a rational choice perspective. The article argues that NGOs are influenced by an intricate web of factors, and puts forward three main standpoints NGOs utilise in making decisions. Depending on one's perspective, NGO action can be interpreted as either rational or irrational behaviour. 2015-01-10T13:36:15Z 2015-01-10T13:36:15Z 2012 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11997 eng application/pdf Department of Psychiatry and Mental Health Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town
