The Making of an Aid Architecture Pivoting to Asia
Herausgeber: Asplund, André; Marie Soderberg

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines Japan's development assistance as it transitions away from "Official Development Assistance" and towards "Development Cooperation." In this transition, the strong relationships between Japanese development policy and comprehensive security, diplomacy, foreign, domestic and economic policies are likely to become even more integrated. Written by a multidisciplinary team of contributors from the fields of poltical science, international relations, development, economics, public opinion and Japan studies, this book sets out to be innovative in capturing the essence of the changing patterns of development cooperation, and more importantly, Japan's role in within it, in an era of great change.
