The elusive quest for growth / William Easterly
Titre : The elusive quest for growth : economists'adventures and misadventures in the tropics Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : William Easterly, Auteur Editeur : The MIT Press Année de publication : 2002 Importance : 342 p Note générale : 06.01 EAS Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Aide au développement Tags : Politique de développement Pauvreté Pays en développement Politique économique Aide au développement Dette Corruption Investissements Index. décimale : 06.01 Développement - Généralités Résumé : Since the end of World War II, economists have tried to figure out how poor countries in the tropics could attain standards of living approaching those of countries in Europe and North America. Attempted remedies have included providing foreign aid, investing in machines, fostering education, controlling population growth, and making aid loans as well as forgiving those loans on condition of reforms. None of these solutions has delivered as promised. The problem is not the failure of economics, William Easterly argues, but the failure to apply economic principles to practical policy work. In this book Easterly shows how these solutions all violate the basic principle of economics, that people—private individuals and businesses, government officials, even aid donors—respond to incentives. Easterly first discusses the importance of growth. He then analyzes the development solutions that have failed. Finally, he suggests alternative approaches to the problem. Written in an accessible, at times irreverent, style, Easterly’s book combines modern growth theory with anecdotes from his fieldwork for the World Bank.

Titre : The new aid paradigm : A case of policy incoherence Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : Geske Dijkstra, Auteur Editeur : Department of Economic & Social Affairs (DESA) Année de publication : December 2013 Collection : DESA Working Paper num. 128 Importance : 21 p Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Aide au développement Tags : Aide au développement Réduction de la pauvreté Résumé : From around 2000 onward, donors and recipient governments embarked upon a new aid paradigm. The most important elements include increased selectivity in the aid allocation, more ownership of recipient countries based on nationally elaborated PRSPs, and more donor alignment and harmonization via program-based approaches such as budget support. The paper assesses the theoretical merits of this new paradigm, identifying some contradictions and limitations, and then examines its implementation over the past decade and its results. The empirical results largely confirm the earlier identified weaknesses and limitations. The paper concludes with some suggestions for improving aid practices.
