Aid without Accountability tells the story of how 4.5 billion dollars in international aid to Georgia helped the rich and (sometimes) the poor in the aftermath of the 2008 Russian-Georgian war. From America s controversial military-humanitarian intervention into the conflict to the UN-led distribution of inedible food, from lavish cash injections for Georgian banks to the shoddy construction of resettlement camps for refugees, the book documents how the aid industry routinely caters to powerful hidden agendas while evading accountability to the poor.

Autorenporträt
Till Bruckner first came to Georgia as a starry-eyed and bushy-tailed novice aid worker in 2002. In the immediate aftermath of the 2008 Georgian-Russian war, he worked as Transparency International Georgiäs Aid Monitoring Coordinator, leading a research team that analysed and attempted to track 4.5 billion dollars in international aid.
