Foreign Aid
Author: Carol Lancaster
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226470628
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
A twentieth-century innovation, foreign aid has become a familiar and even expected element in international relations. But scholars and government officials continue to debate why countries provide it: some claim that it is primarily a tool of diplomacy, some argue that it is largely intended to support development in poor countries, and still others point out its myriad newer uses. Carol Lancaster effectively puts this dispute to rest here by providing the most comprehensive answer yet to the question of why governments give foreign aid. She argues that because of domestic politics in aid-giving countries, it has always been—and will continue to be—used to achieve a mixture of different goals. Drawing on her expertise in both comparative politics and international relations and on her experience as a former public official, Lancaster provides five in-depth case studies—the United States, Japan, France, Germany, and Denmark—that demonstrate how domestic politics and international pressures combine to shape how and why donor governments give aid. In doing so, she explores the impact on foreign aid of political institutions, interest groups, and the ways governments organize their giving. Her findings provide essential insight for scholars of international relations and comparative politics, as well as anyone involved with foreign aid or foreign policy.

Does Foreign Aid Really Work?

Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en

Book Description
Provided for over 60 years, and expanding more rapidly today than it has for a generation, foreign aid is now a $100bn business. But does it work? Indeed, is it needed at all? In this first-ever, overall assessment of aid, Roger Riddell provides a rigorous but highly readable account of aid, warts and all.

U.S. International Book Programs, 1981
Author: John Young Cole
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Books and reading
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
Before launching any major projects in the international book field, the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress decided to inventory what is currently being done in this area by both government and private agencies. This booklet presents brief descriptions of international book programs conducted by 15 U.S. government agencies and commissions, 2 intergovernmental organizations, and 15 U.S. private organizations. An address and contact person is provided for each institution. Because there is less activity, and especially less U.S. government activity, in the book field than there was 15 years ago, an introductory essay on "The Book Crisis and the Developing World" by John B. Putnam is included to put the inventory into a historical perspective. Putnam also notes problems that interfere with the free flow of technical books to and among developing countries, including foreign exchange restrictions, the inadequacy of promotional and bibliographic tools, delay in delivery, illiteracy, the necessity for translation into local languages, and the high price of books. Appendices describe the activities of two important but defunct organizations: Franklin Book Programs, Inc. (1952-78) and the U.S. Government Advisory Committee on International Book and Library Programs (1962-77). (esr).
