have these. wrt Russia ...


cover art by ralph steadman, best known for his Fear and Loathing artwork. got this for a penny a number of years ago, it’s a Marxist critique of the World Bank, IMF and other western aide programs and talks about some of the fuckery in Latin America. here is an excerpt from a USAID discussion paper, Measures to ensure the effective use of aid 1966:

quote:


AID has increasingly recognized that economic aid can promote development not simply by supplementing the host country’s limited capital and technical resources but also by exerting influence on host country policies and programmes. As we have become aware of aid’s potential leverage role, we have experimented with techniques for exercising such leverage more effectively

that’s pretty loving clear lol. main ideas are still relevant today when considering the motivations of international aid, and that it is never unconditional


e,
nothing too weird but on theme and a classic
