About this title

Synopsis

After more than forty years and the expenditure of hundreds of billions of dollars by the developed nations of the world in foreign assistance, the gap between rich and poor nations has increased and the poorest of their poor are worse off now than some 40 years ago. Why? What went wrong? What caused so many ambitious foreign assistance programs to produce such dismal results? New Directions for Development in Third World Countries provides convincing answers to these important questions and prescribes more effective ways to direct foreign assistance efforts in the future.
