Foreign Aid: Will it ever reach its sunset?

This Headline Series examines the experience of past aid programs since the Marshall Plan began in 1947, how they have adapted to changing global conditions and what analysis of earlier experience teaches. It considers whether certain changes in the “aid relationship” between donor and recipient may be needed to bring about conditions whereby aid programs can achieve their objectives within some reasonable time frame (20-30 years). It also explores whether increased donor contributions without specific changes in the aid relationship are likely to bring it about. A number of proposed revisions, some contemplated under the U.S. Millennium Challenge Account (MCA) of 2003 are examined in the course of this timely publication.
