Foreign Aid Resurgent: New Spirit or Old Hangover?

Author

Listed:
  • Peter J. Burnell

Abstract

This study is premised on the view that reports circulating in the 1990s, claiming foreign aid was in terminal crisis, were premature. Aid's reviving fortunes are explained in terms both of a growing awareness of the uneven implications of globalization and the after-effects of the terrorist events of 11 September 2001. However these two 'drivers' make uneasy partners.
