A major restriction to Western aid efforts has been a lack of coordination. This book delves into the determinants of successful cooperation between bi- and multilateral donor agencies at the example of Western aid to Eastern Europe in the period from 1990 to 1996. In raising the assumption that networking between international organizations cannot be stimulated by appealing to norm-oriented behavior but is contingent upon the existence of common interests, the idealist view of international relations is seriously challenged. Comparing different assistance sectors - energy, telecoms, mass privatization, agriculture, statistics, central banking, environment and education - it is shown that donor coordination is a form of collective action initiated by donors in response to sectoral market failure which is perceived as significant because it threatens the non-attainment of basic goals or inflicts own projects with high costs or risks.

GAO provided information on the status of U.S. economic assistance to eastern Europe, focusing on: (1) program elements and the earmarking of funds under the Support for East European Democracy Act of 1989 (SEED); and (2) U.S. objectives and coordination of assistance. GAO found that the Department of State was concerned over congressional earmarking of SEED funds for specific programs or projects in Poland and Hungary, since the: (1) congressional allocation of some training funds did not serve U.S. government policy interests; (2) heavy emphasis on assistance to the private sector hampered program effectiveness and limited the ability to work with the host government public sectors; and (3) earmarks prevented the United States from responding to quickly changing circumstances in Eastern Europe. GAO also found that: (1) other U.S. agencies reported that neither the international donor community nor the host governments set economic assistance priorities; (2) Hungarian officials did not clearly identify the type and amount of assistance it needed; (3) donors provided uncoordinated technical assistance that could be duplicative, overlapping, or conflicting; (4) the United States stated that, if the host governments failed to set their own priorities, the U.S. government will go ahead with its priorities; (5) the U.S. objectives in eastern Europe included political pluralism, economic reform, enhanced respect for human rights, and friendly relations with the United States; and (6) the implementing agencies were critical of the Agency for International Development's attempts to exercise management authority over projects it was not implementing.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Eastern European countries were said to be playing catch up with the West, and in the field of development cooperation, they were classified as ‘new donors.’ This book aims to problematize this distinction between old and new development donors, applying an East–West dimension to global Orientalism discourse. The book uses a novel double postcolonial perspective, examining North – South relations and East–West relations simultaneously, and problematizing these distinctions. In particular, the book deploys an empirical analysis of a ‘new’ Eastern European donor (Slovakia), compared with an ‘old’ donor (Austria), in order to explore questions around hierarchization, depoliticization and the legitimization of development. This book’s innovative approach to the East–West dimension of global Orientalism will be of interest to researchers in postcolonial studies, Eastern European studies, and critical development studies.

This paper provides a Who's Who profile of the key players now giving economic assistance. It examines the policies of the major donors and the major institutions, in particular the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development as the first post-Cold War international organization. It also suggests how assistance programmes have implications for a regional security as leaders of the United States and the European twelve especially try to redesign European àrchitecture' to fit the needs of post-Cold War Europe.

On September 21-22, 1990, RAND convened, in collaboration with the Sequoia Institute and with funding provided by the Agency for International Development, a conference of participants from government, universities, and the business and financial communities to consider whether and how specific types of actions, policies, and programs can advance the objectives set forth in the Support for East European Democracy (SEED) Act (P.L. 101-179)--namely, to "contribute to the development of democratic institutions and political pluralism" and "promote the development of a free market economic system"--through the use of the funds and instruments provided by the SEED legislation. This report contains the papers and discussants' comments presented at the conference. The report's four sections cover precedents and experience from prior U.S. government assistance programs, promoting pluralism and democracy, development of free market systems, and ongoing U.S. government assistance to Central and Eastern Europe.

Assessing Aid determines that the effectiveness of aid is not decided by the amount received but rather the institutional and policy environment into which it is accepted. It examines how development assistance can be more effective at reducing global poverty and gives five mainrecommendations for making aid more effective: targeting financial aid to poor countries with good policies and strong economic management; providing policy-based aid to demonstrated reformers; using simpler instruments to transfer resources to countries with sound management; focusing projects oncreating and transmitting knowledge and capacity; and rethinking the internal incentives of aid agencies.
