Aid in the twenty-first century: Reconciling the real and the desirable

Frances Stewart

Chapter 9 in Globalization and Economic Development, 2001 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Globalization is widely regarded as a means not only of ensuring efficiency and growth, but also of achieving equity and development for those countries operating in the global economy. The book argues that this perception of globalization as the road to development has lost its lustre. The experience of the 1990s belied expectation of the gains, such as faster growth and reduced poverty, which could be achieved through closer integration in the world economy.
