The authors focus on peer-reviewed, cross-country studies published over the last decade and draw together some global-level assessments, considering the context and conditions under which aid might be said to ?work?. Glennie and Sumner argue that the evidence in four areas shows signs of convergence that may have direct relevance for policy decisions on aid and for aid effectiveness discussions. These are as follows: Aid levels (meaning if aid is too low or too high); Domestic political institutions (including political stability and extent of decentralisation); Aid composition (including sectors, modalities, objectives and time horizons); and Aid volatility and fragmentation. Notably, this study finds  that there is no consensus that the effectiveness of aid depends on orthodox economic policies. 606 $aInternational organization 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aPoverty 606 $aSocial change 606 $aInternational Organization$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912010 606 $aDevelopment Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913010 606 $aDevelopment Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913020 606 $aDevelopment Aid$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913040 606 $aDevelopment and Social Change$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913030 615 0$aInternational organization. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aPoverty. 615 0$aSocial change. 615 14$aInternational Organization. 615 24$aDevelopment Theory. 615 24$aDevelopment Policy. 615 24$aDevelopment Aid. 615 24$aDevelopment and Social Change. 676 $a327.06 700 $aGlennie$b Jonathan$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01059631 702 $aSumner$b Andy$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255306803321 996 $aAid, Growth and Poverty$92507418 997 $aUNINA
