Abstract

This book provides a comprehensive search for the basic political drivers of international development cooperation, based on the policy and performance of the OECD countries from the early 1960s to the present. The author focuses on the stated and implemented policies of the four so-called frontrunners and the Western hegemon, scrutinizing the changing trends in the justifications, objectives and guidelines set for the policy and their evolving performance vis-à-vis the international ODA target. Through extensive research, the work examines predominant world-views, societal value systems and foreign policy traditions, in order to find the policy drivers that vary nation to nation and how development assistance has evolved globally. Olav Stokke is Senior Researcher at the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs, Norway. He is the author of The UN and Development (2009).

Abstract

Aid effectiveness has emerged as an intensely debated issue amongst policy makers, donors, development practitioners, civil society and academics during the past decade. This debate revolves around one important question: does official development assistance complement, duplicate or disregard the local resource endowment in offering support to recipient economies? This book draws on Pakistan's experience in responding to this question with a diverse range of examples. It focuses on a central idea: no aid effectiveness without an effective receiving mechanism. Pakistan is among the top aid recipient countries in the developing economies. It was a shining model in the sixties and has descended to highly underperforming countries after the new millennium. This book as an attempt to understand the dynamics of success and failure of Pakistan in availing foreign financial and technical assistance for human development and poverty alleviation. This book draws on the field experiences to present case studies on water, shelter, health, education and health and safety at work to identify the causes and consequences of aid in relation to social reality. Findings relate to developing economies and would be of interest to a wide range of individuals within the development sector.

Abstract

Waterputten slaan, scholen bouwen, zieken verzorgen: jaarlijks stappen vele vrijwilligers en studenten op het vliegtuig om in Afrika, Azië of Zuid-Amerika de handen uit de mouwen te steken en werkervaring op te doen. Fantastisch, of toch niet? Op basis van eigen ervaringen en onderzoek laat Judith van de Kamp de andere kant zien van werken in een ontwikkelingsland. Is die goedbedoelde hulp wel nuttig? Doe je het voor de ander of voor jezelf, en kan dat ook samengaan? Onverbloemd geeft Judith van de Kamp haar kijk op de zin en onzin van kortstondig werk door westerlingen. Ze laat het werkelijke leven in een ontwikkelingsland zien en geeft vele nuttige tips.De derde wereld op je cv is een praktische en kritische gids om van je verblijf een echt onvergetelijke ervaring te maken.
