Focusing on post-1993 Cambodia, Ear explores the unintended consequences in post-conflict environments of foreign aid. He chooses Cambodia both for personal reasons--which infuses an academic analysis with a compelling sense of urgency--and because it is one of the most aid-drenched countries in modern history. He tries to explain the relationship between Cambodia's aid dependence and its appallingly poor governance. He concludes that despite decades of aid, technical cooperation, four national elections, no open warfare, and some progress in some parts of the economy, Cambodia is one broken government away from disaster."--Publisher's description. 650 0 Democracy|zCambodia. 650 0 Economic assistance|xPolitical aspects|zCambodia. 650 0 Technical assistance|xPolitical aspects|zCambodia. 651 0 Cambodia|xPolitics and government|y1979-1993 651 0 Cambodia|xEconomic conditions. 948 rajbhand 948 MARCIVE Processed 2014 948 jlee1 04/22 oclc worldcat holding update 949 1 |lmain|i38132106522763
