Aid and Dependence the case of Suriname
$99.00
Baijah Mhango
This book sets out to investigate the subtle issues which determine bilateral aid relations as these apply to the internationally-hailed bilateral aid agreement between Suriname and her former colonial power, the Netherlands, in the period 1975-1982.
The author, Baijah Mhango, has drawn on his wide experience and knowledge of developing countries and of the Surinamese economy in particular to make an extensive study of this bilateral aid relation, which includes an appraisal of the probable effects of aid on the transformation of the Surinamese economy. The study includes a chapter on “political leverage” as one of the most notorious characteristics of all bilateral aid relations in the current international economic order.
This work is of use not only to students of economics, political science, law, sociology and planning, but also to planners and politicians. Its brevity and relative simplicity makes it a useful work also for the non-academic reader.
