Foreign aid, whose growth coincided with the years of the Cold War,
is now an accepted part of international relations. This dictionary
documents every aspect and phase of aid: the power and influence of
the World Bank and IMF; the impact of OPEC; individual government
departments responsible for aid; regional and political
organizations; the United Nations; and the role of Non-Government
Organizations (NGOs). In his wide-ranging introduction, Arnold
illustrates the development of foreign aid as a policy tool
beginning with the U.S. Marshall Plan and the subsequent
development, with the Colombo Plan of 1950, of a new principle in
international relations: that the rich, developed countries had a
duty and a self-interest in providing economic assistance for poor,
less developed countries. Includes bibliography and chronology.
