New Europe's New Development Aid

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines the international development policies of five East Central European new EU member states, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia. These countries turned from being aid recipients to donors after the turn of the Millennium in the run-up to EU accession. The book explains the post-2004 evolution and current state of foreign aid policies in the region and the reasons why these deviate from many of the internationally agreed best practices in development cooperation. It argues that after the turn of the Millennium, a 'Global Consensus' has emerged on how to make foreign aid more effective for development.
