Yet there has been little inquiry into how such assistance affects the politics and societies of recipient nations. Drawing on four decades of data on U.S. economic and military aid, Aiding and Abetting explores whether foreign aid does more harm than good. Jessica Trisko Darden challenges long-standing ideas about aid and its consequences, and highlights key patterns in the relationship between assistance and violence. She persuasively demonstrates that many of the foreign aid policy challenges the U.S. faced in the Cold War era, such as the propping up of dictators friendly to U.S. interests, remain salient today. Historical case studies of Indonesia, El Salvador, and South Korea illustrate how aid can uphold human freedoms or propagate human rights abuses. Aiding and Abetting encourages both advocates and critics of foreign assistance to reconsider its political and social consequences by focusing international aid efforts on the expansion of human freedom."-- $c Publisher's website. 650 0 $a Human rights $z Developing countries. 650 0 $a Political persecution $z Developing countries. 650 0 $a State-sponsored terrorism $z Developing countries. 650 0 $a Military assistance, American $z Developing countries. 650 0 $a Economic assistance, American $z Developing countries. 650 7 $a Economic assistance, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00901618 650 7 $a Human rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963285 650 7 $a Military assistance, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01020932 650 7 $a Political persecution. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069448 650 7 $a State-sponsored terrorism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01131965 651 7 $a Developing countries. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01242969 650 7 $a Amerikaner $2 gnd 650 7 $a EntwicklungslaÂnder $g Motiv $2 gnd 650 7 $a Menschenrecht $2 gnd 650 7 $a MilitaÂrhilfe $2 gnd 650 7 $a Politische Verfolgung $2 gnd 650 7 $a Wirtschaftshilfe $2 gnd 776 08 $i Online version: $a Trisko Darden, Jessica. $t Aiding and abetting. $d Stanford, California : Stanford University Press, 2020 $z 9781503611009 $w (DLC) 2019022027 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017023932.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C9295616807011EABE26D64B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
