Abstract
This chapter theorizes about dependent agency and situates the concept in the Malawian and Zambian context. A condition in which people can simultaneously act and be dependent, dependent agency lies on a continuum and manifests itself to various degrees in structures of global power relations and specific environments. In Malawi and Zambia, donor competition, foreign aid uncertainty, development discourses that promote grassroots participation, global norms that define health as a human right, and the rise of the AIDS enterprise shape this global-local context. This chapter concludes by describing the research methodology.
