Aid and Technical Cooperation as a Foreign Policy Tool for Emerging Donors The Case of Brazil


Free Download Déborah Barros Leal Farias, "Aid and Technical Cooperation as a Foreign Policy Tool for Emerging Donors: The Case of Brazil"
English | 2020 | ISBN: 0367666545, 0815362625 | EPUB | pages: 184 | 1.1 mb

The assumption is sometimes made that donors from developing countries might be more motivated by altruism than ‘traditional’ western donors. This book demonstrates that on the contrary, the provision of development assistance can be used to serve national interests, allowing so-called ’emerging’ donors to gain soft power in the international sphere by improving their image and global influence.
