This book provides a timely, critical, and thought-provoking
analysis of the implications of the disruption of COVID-19 to the
foreign aid and development system, and the extent to which the
system is retaining a level of relevance, legitimacy, or coherence.
Drawing on the expertise of key scholars from around the world in
the fields of international development, political science,
socioeconomics, history, and international relations, the book
explores the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on development aid
within an environment of shifting national and regional priorities
and interactions. The response is specifically focused on the
interrelated themes of political analysis and soft power, the
legitimation crisis, poverty, inequality, foreign aid, and the
disruption and re-making of the world order. The book argues that
complex and multidirectional linkages between politics, economics,
society, and the environment are driving changes in the extant
development aid system. COVID-19 and Foreign Aid provides a range
of critical reflections to shifts in the world order, the rise of
nationalism, the strange non-death of neoliberalism, shifts in
globalisation, and the evolving impact of COVID as a cross-cutting
crisis in the development aid system. This book will be of interest
to researchers and students in the field of health and development
studies, decision-makers at government level as well as to those
working in or consulting to international aid institutions,
regional and bilateral aid agencies, and non-governmental
organisations.
