Bread and the Ballot
Author: Dennis MerrillPublisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 9780807819203
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Drawing on recently declassified government documents, Merrill examines U.S. foreign economic policy toward India from its independence to President Kennedy's assassination. He considers the politics, ideology, and functioning of the large economic assistance effort in India, and also provides insights into the failures of U.S. economic strategies in the Third World during the Cold War. According to Merrill, rapid growth of aid to nonaligned India began during the Eisenhower Administration, which declared the policy of the United States to convince "people in the less developed areas that there is a way of life by which they can have bread and the ballot." The volume also includes Indian views on relevant economic and political issues. ISBN 0-8078-1920-4: $39.95.

Book Description
Assessing Aid determines that the effectiveness of aid is not decided by the amount received but rather the institutional and policy environment into which it is accepted. It examines how development assistance can be more effective at reducing global poverty and gives five mainrecommendations for making aid more effective: targeting financial aid to poor countries with good policies and strong economic management; providing policy-based aid to demonstrated reformers; using simpler instruments to transfer resources to countries with sound management; focusing projects oncreating and transmitting knowledge and capacity; and rethinking the internal incentives of aid agencies.
International Aid and Democracy Promotion
Author: Bann Seng TanPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 9780367505868
Category : Conditionality (International relations)
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
International Aid and Democracy Promotion investigates the link between foreign aid and the promotion of democracy, using theory, statistical tests, and illustrative case studies. This book challenges the field of development to recognize that democracy promotion is unlike other development goals. With a goal like economic development, the interests of the recipient and the donor coincide; whereas, with democratization, authoritarian recipients have strong reasons to oppose what donors seek. The different motivations of donors and recipients must be considered if democracy aid is to be effective. The author examines how donors exercise their leverage over aid recipients, and, more importantly, why, using selectorate theory to understand the incentives of both aid donors and recipients. International Aid and Democracy Promotion will be of great interest to academics and students of development and democratization, as well as policy makers with authority over foreign aid allocation.
