Aid and Influence - Patronage, Power and Politics (Hardcover, 2nd edition)

- This book responds directly to the rise of China and the role of covid-19, which has opened up a new battle ground for aid as a tool for political influence. - The US and the UK have never been so open about the underlying politics behind aid, with the US withdrawing from many global commitments and the UK recently combining the foreign office with the department for development. -Written by Stephen Browne, a prominent practitioner with over 30 years experience at the UN, co-director of the Future United Nations Development System (FUNDS) project, Senior Fellow of the Ralph Bunche Institute for International Studies, Graduate Center, City University of New York, and visiting lecturer at the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, Geneva
