This book presents an original approach to understanding the relationship
between official aid agencies and aid-receiving African governments. The
first part provides a challenge to the hazy official claims of aid donors that they
have stopped trying to force African governments to do what we think is best
for them and instead are now promoting African Ownership of the policies
and projects which foreign aid supports. The authors tease out the multiple
meanings of the term ownership , demonstrating why it became popular when
it did, but also the limits to this discourse of ownership observed in aid practices.
The authors set out to defend a particular vision of ownership—one that involves
African governments taking back control of their development policies and priori¬
ties. Based largely on interviews with the people who do the negotiating on both
sides of the aid relationship, the country case studies put the rhetoric of the new
aid system to a more practical test. The authors ask how donors seek to achieve
their policy objectives without being seen to push too hard, what preconditions
they place on transferring authority to African governments, and what effect the
constant discussions over development policy have on state institutions, dem¬
ocracy and political culture in recipient countries. It investigates the strategies
that African states have adopted to advance their objectives in aid negotiations
and how successful their efforts have been. Comparing the country experiences,
it points out the conditions accounting for the varying success of eight African
countries: Botswana, Ethiopia, Ghana, Mali, Mozambique, Rwanda, Tanzania,
and Zambia. It concludes by asking whether the conditions African countries
face in aid negotiations are changing.
