Synopsis
Foreign aid is a global endeavour with a huge turnover. But it is a troubled industry with few successes to its name, yet expected to respond to new and very complex problems. Can it do so? Supposed to be benign and selfless, it often harms more than it helps, and benefits givers more than receivers. Can it stop doing so? Can we create a system of genuine help -- democratic in its execution, effective in its impact, adequate in scale, just in its consequences? Give and Take grasps these questions. Foreign aid is an issue that concerns us all, financially and morally. This thoughtful book argues that aid must be made less of a problem, more of a solution.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Billions are spent each year on foreign aid and tens of thousands are employed in the aid industry. Here, David Sogge asks: is there a real net flow of financial resources to the South?; how much aid should there be?; on what terms should it be given? Do the strings imposed imply a ressurection of old colonial controls?; can Northern governments, international financial institutions and developing countries ever agree?; can we think of an aid system for the new century - democratic, effective, adequate and just?
