Sommario/riassunto |
|
This timely work presents cutting-edge analysis of the problems of U.S. foreign assistance programs--why these problems have not been solved in the past, and how they might be solved in the future. The expert contributors focus primarily on U.S. foreign assistance and foreign policy as they apply to nation building, governance, and democratization. |
