The Australian aid program faces a fundamental dilemma: how, in the absence of deep popular support, should it generate the political legitimacy required to safeguard its budget and administering institution? Australia's Foreign Aid Dilemma tells the story of the actors who have grappled with this question over 40 years. It draws on extensive interviews and archival material to uncover how 'court politics' shapes both aid policy and administration. The lesson for scholars and practitioners is that any holistic understanding of the development enterprise must account for the complex relationship between the aid program of individual governments and the domestic political and bureaucratic contexts in which it is embedded. If the way funding is administered shapes development outcomes, then understanding the 'court politics' of aid matters. This comprehensive text will be of considerable interest to scholars and students of politics and foreign policy as well as development professionals in Australia and across the world.

Autorenporträt
My editor is Jeremy McTeague who I wrote over 80 articles for while I was writing for "Xtreme Magazine" twenty years ago. Xtreme might have been an adult magazine, but so is "Playboy". And like "Playboy" Xtreme was a class act covering a huge variety of subjects. While he was the editor Jeremy wrote a lot of mindboggling satire, until Xtreme's owner put Jeremy in charge of several East Coast franchises where he became responsible for sales, advertising, collections, and magazine content.
