Foreign aid is one of the few topics in the development discourse with such an        uninterrupted, yet volatile history in terms of interest and attention from        academics, policymakers, and practitioners alike. Does aid work in promoting growth        and reducing poverty in the developing world? Will a new 'big push' approach        accelerate progress towards the Millennium Development Goals or will another        opportunity be missed? Can the lessons of almost half a century of aid giving be        learnt? Theseare truly important questions in view of the emerging new landscape in        foreign aid and recent developments related to the global financial crisis, which        are expected to have far reaching implications for both donors and recipients        engaged in this area. Against this shifting aid landscape, there is apressing need        to evaluate progress to date and shed new light on emerging issues and agendas.This        volume brings together leading aid experts to review the progress achieved so far,        identify the challenges ahead, and discuss the emerging policy agenda in foreign        aid. A central conclusion of this important and timely volume is that, since        development aid remains crucial for many developing countries, a huge effort is        needed from both donors and aid recipients to overcome the inefficiencies and make        aid work better for poor people. After all, as global citizens, we have a moral        obligationto do the best we can to lift people out of poverty in the developing        world. The findings of this book will be of considerable interest to professionals        and policymakers engaged in policy reforms in foreign aid, and provide an essential        one-stop reference for students of development, internationalfinance, and        economics.
