Less Aid Proliferation and More Donor Coordination? The Wide Gap between Words and Deeds
Aldasoro, Iñaki - 2013

The typical identification strategy in aid effectiveness studies assumes donor motives do not influence the impact of aid on growth. We call this homogeneity assumption into question, first constructing a model in which donor motives matter and then testing the assumption empirically. -- Aid ;...
