Since the famous debate between Keynes and Ohlin on German
reparation payments after World War I, international transfers have
attracted the attention of economists. Today the subject is of even
greater importance with billions of dollars flowing between nations
as unilateral transfers. However the emphasis has shifted from
balance-of-payments issues to the welfare consequences following a
transfer and in particular the welfare issues arising from aid to
developing countries. In The Economics of International Transfers,
first published in 1998, Professors Brakman and van Marrewijk
present an overview of transfers (including the history of
transfers and current transfer flows) and their own unified
framework in which they present important and original research.
Subjects considered include welfare effects, distortions, third
parties, rent-seeking, the 'trade or aid' discussion, multi-lateral
agencies, tied aid and imperfect competition.
