United Nations' Development Aid: A Study in History and Politics

This comprehensive survey presents a critical analysis of the United Nations programs that offer aid to developing countries for their economic and social growth. Explaining in detail the political struggles and considerations underlying the birth of each of the programs, this study covers the inherent flaws in their conceptualization while analyzing the growth and changes in structure over the last five decades. This reference explores the chronic problems encountered in implementation, discussing the need for further progress in coordination, and for simplifying the legislative decision-making structure relating to development aid.
