Abstract: This chapter examines the possibility of a mutually beneficial policy combination of economic aid by a donor country and tariff reducing trade liberalization in the recipient country under imperfect competition. We set up a simple two country Ricardian trading model in which the donor's export good is supplied by a monopoly firm and the recipient country imposes tariff on imports from the donor country. We derive the condition that mutually beneficial policy coordination can be agreed by the two countries.
