International Aid Thesis

The economic rationale for aid is based on the claim that the macroeconomic contribution of aid to recipient countries is positive through the promotion of improved economic policies and resource allocation.

Africa is aid dependent, not only in terms of the quantity of aid but in terms of the institutional mechanisms of this aid flow.

Donors, who want to help (or are committed to send money for other reasons), may be forced to oblige.

This group of scholars also feel that by paying big salary premiums, large donor projects can “poach” good people away from government, weakening its institutions and that recipients governments overstretch themselves and in situations where focusing on priorities is important, recipients will often prefer to expand their operations to cover whatever projects donors wish to fund, especially since such funding often creates perks for officials.

Chapter VI looks into Kenya's prospects for development through foreign aid. Theses and dissertations represent a wealth of scholarly and artistic content created by masters and doctoral students in the degree-seeking process.Pro-aid scholars feel that aid helps developing countries’ economies and also helps improve human development especially in countries with sound political and economic policies.Scholars against aid state that aid creates a “moral hazard” problem (Samaritans dilemma), meaning that governments can spend money without a firm budget constraint, confident that donors will bail them out of any difficulty.China’s foreign aid also relies on a mixing of economic cooperation, trade and investment deals.While several Western scholars have examined the Chinese development cooperation system, few voices from China have been heard in European and North American journals and media.More information about this thesis can be viewed below.
