This book provides an overview of what aid is, how it has changed
over time and how it is practiced, as well as debates about whether
aid works, for whom and what its future might be. The text shows
how 'aid' is a contested and fluid concept that involves a wide and
changing variety of policies, actors and impacts. It equips the
reader with an understanding of what aid is, where it comes from
and where it goes, how it is delivered and what its impacts are,
and whether shortcomings are a result of a fundamental problem with
aid, or merely the result of bad practices. It explores the
changing political ideologies and conceptions of development that
continually reshape how aid is defined, implemented and assessed,
and how, despite a global commitment to the Sustainable Development
Goals, we are at a point where the very notion of aid is being
questioned and its future is uncertain. Each chapter includes case
studies, chapter summaries, discussions, weblinks and further
reading, to help strengthen the reader's understanding. Aid and
Development provides an important resource for students,
development workers and policy makers seeking an understanding of
how aid works.
