Texto completoThe thesis examines the allocation of multilateral aid flows with respect to two current issues of the development agenda: the selectivity of aid and the quality of governance. The dissertation brings together three strands of the relevant literature: firstly, the reference literature relating to aid effectiveness and aid allocation, which is then followed by the literature on good governance and, lastly, on the political economy of international organizations. We carry out an econometric study to understand whether international organizations care about the recipients’ performance on governance. With a GMM-Diff methodology using both internal and external instruments we show that the focus on governance by multilateral bodies is not only rhetoric, as it appears at first glance. Moreover, we explore how the selectivity of multilateral aid varies over time by employing a three-dimensional panel. Our analysis rejects the hypothesis of increasing selectivity and confirms that there is room to improve on the allocation of aid. Multilateral institutions need to strengthen their efforts to allocate aid on criteria other than political-strategic ones.

Texto completoFebruary through March, 2005, I conducted a Minor Field Study (MFS) in Lao PDR together with a fellow-student. We were interested in a project in Laos called GPAR Luang Prabang, in which Sida, UNDP and the Lao Government are trying to improve the governance system in Laos. Luang Prabang is the province in the northern parts of Laos where the good governance-project were being implemented.
The main interest in this study concerns democracy aid in the shape of good governance and local ownership in development aid. Good governance is a highly debated topic in aid-literature, both because of the explosion of good governance projects the last ten or so years and because of the ambiguity that lies in the concept good governance. Different aid-actors give different meanings to good governance. Two definitions stand out: First there is the “narrow” definition that focuses on the economical steering of a country’s resources. The second, or “broad” definition of good governance, focuses on democratic aspects of the concept. Areas like participation, transparency, accountability and rule of law are high-lighted here. Different actors in the aid-society thus have different definitions of the concept.
Whether democracy aid works and becomes sustainable relies, according to the literature, on how well the partners in an aid-project can foster local ownership. Ownership means that the recipient is in control of the policy process, from highlighting a problem to implementing the solutions. The starting point in this thesis is the question whether the ambiguity in good governance- definitions constrains ownership in the policy process. Also, in democracy aid there is an interesting paradox: How can a project that aims at changing political power-structures be driven by those who have the most to gain from these structures? My study shows that when the partners in an aid-project are unable to settle for one definition of good governance, ownership is hard to reach. If the partners can not reach an agreement at an early stage in the process, ownership will suffer and sustainability will be hard to reach.February through March, 2005, I conducted a Minor Field Study (MFS) in Lao PDR together with a fellow-student.

Gary, Aurore. "Foreign aid and governance : to what extent political institutions matter". Thesis, Paris 1, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA010090.
Texto completoThe recognition that political institutions matter is relatively recent and is the result of several interacting factors. The purpose of our research is to explain how foreign aid is related to governance issues both in recipient countries (developing countries) and in donor countries. Development aid is provided by: bilateral donors (29 DAC3 donors and 19 non-DAC donors), multilateral donors and private donors (e.g. Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation). Foreign aid differs according to the intended purposes: reforming national policies (economic policies or other types) and political institutions, and providing humanitarian assistance. The focus of our dissertation is on the emergence of non-strictly economic criteria (mainly institutional criteria) within the donor community as well as their impact on aid allocation and effectiveness. Therefore, we will address several questions: (1) Is the recognition of the institutional nature of aid appropriate?(2) Is aid political? (3) What are the economic implications of political aid (or aid based on institutional performance) ?

This paper examines the relationship between governance and the foreign aid allocation of a World Bank agency, the International Development Association. In particular, the study investigates whether this major multilateral program's financial support for the development of the world's poorest countries consistently prioritizes good governance. A new dataset from the first decade of the twenty-first century, 2003-12, is used in three econometric estimation models to determine whether the quality of governance in recipient countries has had implications for aid allocation decisions. As in much of the literature in this area, the results are mixed. This finding itself raises important questions both about the relevance of a country's governance to aid allocation decisions and about the usefulness of good governance as a metric by which aid organizations are judged.

Texto completoThe European Union is the greatest donor of the world. Until 2002, the south African country Zimbabwe was a recipient of European development aid. Due to major disagreements over key issues, such as human rights and democratic principles, theEuropean Union has partially suspended official development cooperation in 2002. Zimbabwe has not longer fulfilled the criterions of Good Governance, which isdemanded by the European Union. In order to restore the respect for human rights and ademocratic way of governance, the EU has posed sanctions and resolutions. This study provides a study of the outcomes of these repressive measures. Have the sanctions led to a better governance performance in Zimbabwe? Before the terms Governance and Good Governance will be explained into detail, the first part of the thesis is spotting out the European Union as a normative actor.

Texto completoSixty years of development aid have not worked out to alleviate poverty in least developed countries as expected. The over ambitious official rhetoric of aid donors has been effective in creating an aid market that is fuelled by impurely altruistic motivations that seek to accomplish self-‐interested political and economic goals of nations-‐states in its foreign policy domain. In the attempt to deliver aid flows to partner countries in the South, aid agencies’ objective function has focused to maximize its budget rather than the service. The incentives to make aid more effective are not in place and the forces that push new donors to enter the value chain do not capture the theoretical beneficiaries of the system, the poor. However, new emerging drivers from the South and a sample of market-‐oriented initiatives are paving the way for a new order of the current international aid architecture. The European Union’s Member States combine part of its share to the European Commission to jointly state and deliver development aid to third countries. As a result, the European Commission has converted into one of the biggest actors and donor agencies in allocating resources for the development of low-‐income countries. However, the EC development policy is an instrument of the overall EC foreign policy, which hinges on the promotion of economic integration through trade liberalization. Instead of adopting a single, tailored development cooperation approach to developing countries, the EC follows a standard model of cooperation that is characterized by an asymmetric paternalistic relationship in which the donor seeks to maximize its interest and impose its supply-‐driven and exogenous approach. Tanzania is one of the donor darlings in Africa. This country is often held as an example of good aid coordination and ownership between the donor community and the recipient government. Large amounts of aid flows have contributed to generate an environment of macroeconomic stability and long-‐sustained economic growth. However, poverty rates have only fallen slightly, much lesser than expected and corruption is rampant. The EC, along with her development partners, does not prioritize the needs of the poor majority, which mostly live and work in the rural sector. The Government, instead of approaching to the local intended beneficiaries of its development programs, has fallen to the promising rewards of adopting the leading donor-‐driven approach of its development partners and its policy recipes. Therefore, the gap between the donors-‐recipient and the poor is even bigger. The myth of genuine ownership is just an utopia. The small-‐scale entrepreneurs of Dodoma region, a traditional semi-‐arid rural area in the inland of Tanzania, struggle to make their living in a context affected by unstable shortage of rainfall, lack of credit, poor market infrastructure and low entrepreneurial skills. Despite the diversity and quantity of formal institutions that work for the development of the area, semi-‐isolated informal social groups do not maintain systematic relations of cooperation with them. Nevertheless, these communities share a value system that has the potential to absorb new knowledge and technology innovations throughout the activation of motivational values. The proper motivation of local entrepreneurs must follow a lateral communication approach of knowledge transfers within the generation of an innovation environment that fosters a learning economy. The inclusion of the local value system renders relevant implications for economic development theories and development policies, which have rather focused on exogenous variables. Instead, the Endogenous Development Model claims that cultural values are a critical factor for boosting entrepreneurship and unleashing economic development.

Texto completoSince food aid can mitigate the unfortunate consequences of food shortages in certain countries, the importance of such programs is crucial. However, what are the factors conditioning the volume of food aid sent to potential recipient countries? This innovative study will answer this question by applying the gravity model, often used to explain international trade patterns in distribution of international food aid. Indeed, in considering the 15 largest national programs of food donations, this study will test the impact of the distance between donators and receivers, as well as the impact of the populations of each, on the decision to send or not to send food aid. In addition, this thesis will outline new hypotheses that have been hitherto omitted from the literature, and will propose a more efficient methodology to study the phenomenon. Among others we find that gravity, good governance, needs, political affinity and economic interests matter in the food aid distribution patterns but that their influence vary across food aid categories and delivery modes. We also find that when donors give food from their own production they are less fussy about whether they are helping a friendly country or an economically closed country because in fact they are helping their own economy.

Texto completoThe objective of this dissertation is to contribute to the existing knowledge about foreign aid, either about its consequences on the developing world or about its implications for developed economies. Chapter 1 shows that aid improves public institutions when aid is allocated by multilateral agencies. The benefits of aid are even more valuable in countries not reliant on their oil resources rents. In Chapter 2 we analyse the possible Granger causal relationships running between foreign aid and corruption in developing countries. Our data reveal that aid does not result in more or less corruption, and reversely corruption does not exert a significant influence on future assistance. In Chapter 3 we evidence that foreign assistance enhances the recipient country's efficiency of production, in particular when the country has democratic and macroeconomic sound institutions. Chapter 4 reports our data analysis on donors' domestic policies. Aid, migration and unemployment policies are recognized to be tightly connected for OECD donors. Specifically, aid policies are partly shaped by the burden of unemployment and the stock of migrants observed in the donor country

Texto completoIn order to make development aid more efficient, a large number of donors, including Sweden, signed the so called Paris Declaration in 2005. The Declaration gives the partner countries more responsibility for their own development and aims to make he development aid provided by donor countries more measurable. It has been referred to as a paradigm shift within this policy area due to its far‐reaching goals.
The Declaration has consequences for all actors in the development aid community, and this thesis aims at outlining and analyzing the effects of the Declaration on the Swedish non‐governmental organisations which hold a frame agreement with the Swedish International Development Agency (SIDA). As an increasing part of evelopment aid is being channelled through NGOs and they hold an important role in the area, they are interesting subjects of study.
The analysis is conducted from a society‐centred governance perspective, which focuses on how different actors in society shape public policy. The perspective hallenges the view on the state as dominating unilaterally and takes into account the diversity of actors involved in policy‐making, such as NGOs.
The result of the study is, among other things, that the character of the relationships and interactions between Swedish NGOs and SIDA varies, and can be described as either a more traditional hierarchical model or co‐governing. Furthermore, the Paris Declaration is perceived by the NGOs as being a step in the right direction rather than a paradigm shift at all level.
För att göra utvecklingsbistånd effektivare, undertecknade ett stort antal givare, däribland Sverige, den så kallade Parisdeklarationen 2005. Deklarationen ger samarbetsländerna ett större ansvar för sin egen utveckling och syftar till att göra biståndet från givarländerna mer mätbart. Man har kallat detta ett paradigmskifte inom området på grund av sina långtgående mål.
Deklarationen har konsekvenser för alla aktörer inom området utvecklingsbistånd, och denna uppsats syftar till att beskriva och analysera de effekter som deklarationen har på de svenska icke‐statliga organisationer som har ett ramavtal med SIDA. Eftersom en allt större del av utvecklingsbiståndet kanaliseras genom enskilda organisationer och de innehar en viktig roll i området, är de intressanta att studera.
Analysen görs utifrån ett samhällsorienterat governance perspektiv som fokuserar på hur olika aktörer i samhället utformar den offentliga politiken. Perspektivet utmaningar uppfattningen om att staten ensidigt dominerar och tar hänsyn till mångfalden av aktörer i det politiska beslutsfattandet, till exempel icke‐statliga organisationer.
Resultaten av undersökningen är bland annat att karaktären av de relationer och interaktioner mellan svenska icke‐statliga organisationer och SIDA varierar, och kan beskrivas som traditionellt hierarkisk, eller samarbetsbaserad (co‐governing). Vidare uppfattas Parisdeklarationen av icke‐statliga organisationer som ett steg i rätt riktning, snarare än ett paradigmskifte på alla nivåer.

China is rising as one of the leading powers in the international system and therefore it is important to contextualise its role in the world. China is often viewed by western powers as an adversary and a state that should be recognised as a threat. Infrastructure is an important part of any states' economy and has a significant impact on economic development. This thesis intends to assess China's role in funding infrastructure and development projects in developing nations particularly across Africa, and specifically focus on Kenya as a case study to look at China's role and assess what kind of foreign policy is being pursued. By using the theory of imperialism, this thesis will analyse initiatives being pursued by China and why labelling it with the term imperial is not an accurate representation of its foreign policy agenda.

Texto completoGiven the fact that the war-ravaged country of Afghanistan has committed itself to sustainable rural and agricultural development through the cooperative route, the present dissertation, seeing lackluster performance of agricultural cooperatives in the post-conflict era, decided to attempt to reverse this trend at least in terms of intellectual discourse. The main objective of this thesis is to analyze, both theoretically and empirically, the condition of governance structure in Afghan agricultural cooperatives, to understand the cooperatives from the viewpoint of their stakeholders and also to study the role of foreign aid into the cooperatives in the current context of Afghan agriculture. Accordingly, attempts are made to achieve a better governance of the Afghan agricultural cooperatives, which will make them robust thus avoiding large-scale failure of such organizations. The core issues addressed are: ascertain suitability of cooperatives, requirements in terms of governance structure, stakeholder cooperation and effective utilization of foreign aid so as to achieve cooperative success, and factors that constrain smooth functioning of agricultural cooperatives and evolving appropriate strategy to strengthen agriculture cooperative in Afghanistan.The conceptual framework of this dissertation hinges on building a bridge between stakeholder cooperation and cooperative governance through a collective action route, so as to make cooperatives operational and effective in reality. So, the essential contribution of this dissertation is to provide this linkage between stakeholder and collective action theories to evolve an appropriate governance structure. The recommendations for strengthening and activating the cooperative governance structure are provided within a framework of demand for and supply of required institutional changes for comprehensive cooperative sector reforms.While elaborating on the relevance of cooperative governance, this dissertation highlights the importance of combining several perspectives: collective action theory, stakeholder theory, institutional economics - all are now-a-days parts of the modern organizational economics. From the analysis of agricultural sector, basic weaknesses in the availability of physical as well as institutional infrastructure comes to the fore, thus necessitating building up of grass root cooperatives becomes the mainstay of the Afghan development strategy in the eyes of the national government as well as its international supporters. A few important observations emanated from analysis of primary and secondary data and case studies can be summarized under 5 broad areas. First, cooperatives being a special type of business organization demanding perfect synchronization between attributes of a democratic association and those of a business enterprise, both these attributes need to be promoted carefully while maintaining the necessary balance. Second, involvement of too many Ministries and even too many Departments within the same Ministry seems to be implicitly pauperizing the Afghan agricultural cooperatives. Third, the Cooperative Institute Department of Directorate of Agriculture Cooperative Development (DACD) being under pressure with no support other than grant of mere salaries to its faculty and staff, who are again recruited often without the necessary qualification, experience and skills, has further weakened the system. Fourth, while foreign aid became absolutely necessary at the beginning of the new Republic after the prolonged Civil War and conflict, in the absence of a well thought out plan and coordination for its use, its full potential is hardly being realized. Fifth, the idea of establishment of single commodity cooperatives favored under the Draft Law of 2013 has a serious limitation in the absence of suitable scale and scope economies

Texto completoDet svenska välfärdssamhället kan hävdas inbegripa som ett socialt skyddsnät med intention av att medborgarna får skäliga levnadsförhållanden. Välfärdsystemet har dock på senare tid genomgått grundläggande förändringar avseende dess organisering och styrning inom det sociala myndighetsarbetet, där dess påverkan allt för lite anses uppmärksammats. Studiens övergripande syfte är att studera socialarbetares upplevelser av styrning inom socialtjänstens myndighetsutövning. Empirin utgörs av kvalitativa intervjuer och har bringat betydande kunskaper och belysning av ämnesområdet. Resultatet har påvisat en överlagd styrning inom det sociala myndighetsarbetet, som normaliserats och utgör påverkan på hur det praktiska arbetet bedrivs och hur känslan av det sociala arbetet behandlas. Vidare har studiens resultat påvisat diverse orsaksförklaringar som bottnar i konstadsfrågor, tillit från ledningsgruppen, arbetsmotiv men också socialsekreterares individuella yrkeserfarenhet- och kompetens. Utifrån studiens analys har fyra centrala teman identifierats och framställts som både orsaksförklaring och förutsättning för ett praktiskt socialt myndighetsarbete. Dessa förklaras som; styrning och socialsekreterares arbetssituation, brist på tillit, socialt arbete – en kunskapsbaserad praktik och styrning som instrument.

Texto completoThe right to development is linked to the ideology of development and appears as a claiming of a new international legal order. But, facing new global stakes raised by international environmental law, the right to development sees its foundations questioned and little by little demined, by the concept of sustainable development. It is then fed by the new perspectives brought by the right to a healthy environment in connection with the ethical stakes carried by human rights. The coherence of development policies cannot be realized without taking into consideration human rights and thus without taking into consideration its environmental living conditions. To reach the goals of a fair international company, it is necessary to restore a priority in the fundamental rights within the approach of sustainable development. The late awareness of the risks pressing on the environment led to make press threats on the international security and it is necessary thus at the moment to rethink the right for the development with regard to the emergent question on the international scene of the environmental security. New architecture of international environmental governance appears as essential for the realization of the right to development and to offer more widely other perspectives of development beyond a strictly economic approach. An institutional reflection led on the creation of a world environmental organization allows to envisage an international ecological order built in a more united and more coherent joint representation with regard to the ecological, economic and social realities

Texto completoThe necessary struggle against poverty comes from an elementary remark observation: the combined wealth of the 15 richest people in the planet exceeds the total annual value of the production of the properties / services of all the countries of Sub-Saharan Africa. 20 % of the world population consumes more than 80 % of the resources available on the surface of the earth. This observation reminds the magnitude of the efforts which remain to carry out to answer the challenge of the millennium through the OMD. The responsibility of States is obviously engaged but the solutions are more to look for at the level of cities and territories. In the closest to the inhabitants, the local authorities can and have to play a role of catalyst of the development. It is up to the citizens of territories confronted with the problems of underdevelopment to imagine and to propose these local solutions. The decentralized cooperation contributes to the search and the invention of such territorial policies, because it is a frame of privileged dialogue between local governments. Defined as a partnership between local authorities of different nationalities, it allows a sharing of experiences - microfinances, decentralization, good governance etc.- Clearly, all the hopes can invite itself in the symbiosis "Decentralized Cooperation and Objectives of the Millennium for the Development by taking into account their stakes and perspectives in the Sub-Saharan French-Speaking Space"

Texto completoPara a prossecução dos Objectivos de Desenvolvimento do Milénio (ODM), que se assumem como o maior desafio global da cooperação do século XXI, é imprescindível ter em conta todo o conjunto de políticas nacionais e internacionais com impactos nos países em desenvolvimento, no sentido de estruturar eficaz e eficientemente as políticas de cooperação e desenvolvimento. Particularmente, muitas são as contradições que se verificam na definição e execução das políticas europeias que produzem impactos negativos nesses países, representando elevados custos económicos para os mesmos e para os próprios doadores e respectivos contribuintes. Neste sentido, o conceito de Coerência das Políticas para o Desenvolvimento (CPD) surge como um instrumento de alinhamento das políticas de diversas áreas com os objectivos de Desenvolvimento, contribuindo para a erradicação da pobreza e a promoção da eficácia da Ajuda. O Projecto Enhancing Policy Coherence: Making Development Work Better, em Portugal, Coerência.pt - O Desafio do Desenvolvimento, executado pelo Instituto Marquês de Valle Flôr (IMVF), visa exactamente promover a CPD através da sensibilização, monitorização e mobilização dos decisores políticos, funcionários públicos, ONGD e da opinião pública em geral.
In order to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDG), which are the main international challenge of development cooperation for the 21st century, it is crucial to take into account the group of national and international policies with impacts on the developing countries, in order to structure effectively and efficiently the development and cooperation policies. Particularly, there are plenty of contradictions regarding European policies with negative impacts for the developing countries and economic costs for those and for the donors themselves. In that sense, the concept of Policy Coherence for Development (PCD) emerged as an instrument of alignment between the policies of different areas with the development aims, contributing to the eradication of poverty and to the promotion of aid effectiveness. The Project Enhancing Policy Coherence: Making Development Work Better, in Portugal, Coerência.pt - O Desafio do Desenvolvimento, carried out by Instituto Marquês de Valle Flôr (IMVF), aims exactly to promote PCD through the awareness, monitoring and mobilization of policy makers, civil servants, NGOD and general public opinion.

Texto completoThe consecutive failures of the successive cooperation and partnerships in the Mediterranean region have shown the limitations of the current diplomatic models and has also revealed the need to renew the participation of various actors on the international stage. Therefore, the dissertation has aimed to move the center of gravity of the diplomatic activity in the Mediterranean (mainly intergovernmental) in order to develop a model of “collective sustainable diplomacy” by which the region could serve as a model for current or future regionalizations, sole real answers to the increasing globalization. Through historical and contemporary analysis of the practice of diplomacy by civil societies and also through the presentation of the intellectual ferment allowing the expansion of diplomacy to non-state actors, it has been possible to show the signs of an existing diplomacy by these actors on the Mediterranean field. Facing this phenomenon of a less intergovernmental diplomacy, greatly encouraged by supranational organizations, we studied the existence of its formal insertion in the international legal order and presented various legal bases of the participation of civil societies to the diplomatic process. This analysis revealed the lack of a legal status of the so-called “international civil society” and highlighted the denial by the states of an official diplomatic action of this actor. This conclusion led to elaborate a Mediterranean model of action, integrating all stakeholders for a more collective and thus, sustainable diplomacy. Given the peculiarity and special needs of the study area, the Mediterranean has revealed a real potential to integrate, nay, institutionalize this diplomatic renewal. As a real regional modeling, the Mediterranean region could be used as a laboratory for the proposals contained in the dissertation, which could tend to make it a pacified and stabilized region

Texto completoToday there is a significant advance in the democratization process in Togo and Zimbabwe because of the political democratic conditionality for EU development aid and financial sanctions imposed against the country. It is the synergy of internal and external forces that contributed to the change in policy in Togo and Zimbabwe. The mobilization of civil society has been helpful. However, the political system produced by policy conditionality is only façade since the results are not up to what was expected. The results are mixed. The reforms undertaken in Togo and Zimbabwe are only apparent. In addition, aid dependence has fostered corruption, debt, and undermined investment. Unless appropriate solutions can be found to the democratic aspirations of the African peoples, taking into account their social, cultural, economic and political realities; sociopolitical crises are likely to persist on the continent. Africa today needs a strong institution capable of reconciling democracy and development. It also needs fiscal and monetary independence

Texto completoThe study related to both EU tools, affecting its external aid policies and contributing to its human rights strategy :conditionality and governance. One of the main critic that the doctrine addresses to EU conditionality, is its incapacity to lead to an external aid free of geopolitical considerations and acting to protect and promote effectively the human rights. The doctrine explains this weakness by pointing out the mechanism of conditionality’s lack of clearness and previsibility. Despite this critic is pleading for a more legalized mechanism, the governance strategy reveals that the Union did not choose such a solution.Then, dividing the study into two parts, the first assigned to conditional mechanism and the second assigned to governance, I’m asking the reason why a less legalized mecanism succeeded to conditionality. Based on cooperation agreements, strategic orientations, EU practice and the international relations theories, the study tends to reveal the assets and limits of the two strategies. It appears that the legalization process of conditionality can be explained by specific needs but it encountered various limits. At the same times, while strategy based on Governance adresses some of them, this new tool reveals new questions.
