Development Aid and Good Governance (video)

Author : Jean-Michel Severino

Date : September 1, 2009


Since the 1990s, some donor countries have made part of their aid conditional on a set of policies, including economic liberalization, political liberalization and democratization. This triptych, which can be assembled under the heading of 'good governance', has also been promoted by multilateral financial institutions.

Today, because of the economic crisis, forceful criticism of this gamut of conditions is again being expressed in both North and South.

How will the financial crisis affect the South, and how can European Aid help developing countries face this challenge?
