| Summary, etc. |
This article shows how the structure of aid disbursement has changed over the last 30 years to reflect increasing disillusion with the LDC state and with the traditional `development project' as an instrument of development. Aid is simply a different thing from what it was at the time of the last White Paper in 1975, consisting now mainly of technical assistance (much of it for training), programme assistance, private sector support and emergency aid, with traditional government-to-government project aid well down the list of priorities. How poverty will be reduced using this different mix of instrument is not spelled out in the White Paper. We seek to fill the gap by presenting a map, or menu, of alternative poverty strategies. Which elements are selected from the menu will depend partly on political feasibility and partly on relative cost-effectiveness - about which we still know little, after 10 years of renewed anti-poverty effort. This opens up a whole new research agenda. - Reproduced |
