How risk management technologies are implemented in developing countries is largely under-researched. Using a perspective on bio-politics, this paper dissects how an infusion of risk management technologies permeates as a powerful managerial tool in governing subordinates. The notions of power/knowledge relations, disciplinary power, and governmentality enabled the authors to rehearse the Foucault's biopolitics perspective in an analysis of risk-based rationalities and risk management technologies. Qualitative case study research methods guided them to gather empirical evidence from a privately owned, Egyptian insurance firm. They found that risk management technologies are conjoined with institutional and discursive ramifications in a developing country where burgeoning neoliberal economic remedies are being diffused and adopted. Further, risk management technologies go hand in hand with this ensuing neoliberal agenda, making it inescapable for organisational managers in such a developing country to adopt these technologies for their survival and sustainability.

This paper discusses our experiences harnessing the complementarity of perspectives, positions, and resources as an outsider lead researcher and an insider research assistant while reporting a child abuse case that we learned of during qualitative case study research in Kenya. We use collaborative autoethnography to examine our experiences during the research process, with semi-structured individual interviews of each other and document analysis of our email correspondence. We provide a narrative of vulnerability regarding the complexity of reporting child abuse and offer recommendations on how researchers can navigate their limitations and strategically draw from insider-outsider partnerships when managing ethical challenges.

Some methodologists have pointed to similarities between experimental method and case study research in terms of design, theory testing and development. However, little is known about how these debates inform qualitative research rationales. The use of a sequential dual case study provided an opportunity to examine these issues and their impact on the unfolding research process. The interplay of inductive and deductive approaches was evident throughout in decisions determining the nature of the research enquiry.

This chapter examines how the foreign aid policy should and should have supported families facing risks by using the case study of Myanmar. The chapter starts by addressing the issue of poverty, which continues to be the gravest risk in the developing countries, and how family could be the cause of poverty as well as the solution of poverty in foreign aid policy discussion. The situation of poverty and migration as a risk management tool are then examined in the second section of the chapter. Interviews with migrant workers in Thailand and Japan were conducted. Finally, there is a discussion about the developments of Myanmar and how the foreign aid and international community has inadequately responded to the democratization of Myanmar and to the needs of its people.
