Synopsis

Development and foreign aid are moving to the forefront of the international economic agenda, and individuals and non-governmental organizations today are able to exert real influence on political events internationally. Exploring the problems and dilemmas posed by the giving and receiving of financial and technical assistance, this book, written by a political scientist and an economist - both with development experience - brings an interdisciplinary approach to a range of relevant issues. It includes personal anecdotes as well as cross-national examples, and provides an extensive chronology of events marking the historical progress of socio-economic development and aid.
