Why do poor countries give aid to others? This book critically
examines how aspirations for providing aid have coexisted with
experiences of receiving aid and have transformed the practice of
giving aid, with particular reference to the experiences of Japan
and China. It highlights the historical sources that explain the
pattern and strength of foreign aid that these new donors provide.
The book has systematically examined the situation unique to middle
income countries that are receiving and giving aid simultaneously.
It sheds light on the endogenous elements embedded in the
socio-economic conditions of emerging donors, as well as their
learning process as aid recipients. This book examines not only the
perspectives of recipients, but also those of donors: Japan in the
case of China, and the USA and the World Bank in the case of Japan.
By bringing in the donor's perspective, we come to a holistic
understanding of foreign aid as a product of interaction between
the various agents involved. The book provides not only an in-depth
case study of Japan from a historical perspective, but also
stretches its scope to cover contemporary debates on "emerging
donors," including China, India and Korea who have received
substantial amount of aid from Japan in the past. This book
connects the often separated discussion of Japanese aid and the way
it developed in relation to outside forces. In short, this book
represents the first attempt to empirically examine the "life of a
donor" with a clear focus on the origins, struggles, and futures of
non-western donors and their impact on established aid regime.
