评分国际援助的历史可以追溯到很久以前。最成功的例子可能是二战后美国对欧洲的马歇尔计划。这些援助计划背后都带有两个共同的假设,即资本是一国发展的动力源泉,民主法制体系是发展的保障。前者从重商主义到后来的贸易保护主义身上都可以看出。保证并增加本国的资本存量被认为是...

There is no doubt: we want to help.
The well-documented horrors of extreme poverty around the world have created a moral imperative that people have responded to in their millions.
Yet the poverty persists. At a time of unprecedented global prosperity, children are starving to death. Are we not being generous enough? Or is the problem somehow insoluble, an inevitable outcome of historical circumstance?
In this provocative and compelling book, Dambisa Moyo argues that the most important challenge we face today is to destroy the myth that Aid actually works. In the modern globalized economy, simply handing out more money, however well intentioned, will not help the poorest nations achieve sustainable long-term growth.
Dead Aid analyses the history of economic development over the last fifty years and shows how Aid crowds out financial and social capital and directly causes corruption; the countries that have ‘caught up’ did so despite rather than because of Aid. There is, however, an alternative. Extreme poverty is not inevitable. Dambisa Moyo also shows how, with improved access to capital and markets and with the right policies, even the poorest nations could be allowed to prosper.
If we really do want to help, we have to do more than just appease our consciences, hoping for the best, expecting the worst. We need first to understand the problem.
这就是为什么对于国关来讲, professional experience对于Master 很重要的原因。没有真正做过国际事务的经验就很难形成自己的价值体系和观点。看这个作者觉得写的很对,看那个argument觉得很有道理,就总是形不成自己的观点。只有真正在一个领域有了工作经验,深入到project的运行当中才会形成自己的看法。 每个人的看法都可能是biased, base on his/her own working experience. 但这总比只从别人口中二手得来的货要有价值的多。
