Download or read book Colombian Agency and the making of US Foreign Policy written by Alvaro Mendez and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-06-26 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies a significant event in US relations with Latin America, shedding light on the role of dependent states and their foreign policy agency in the process by which local concerns become intertwined with the dominant state’s foreign policy. Plan Colombia was a large-scale foreign aid programme through which the US intervened in the internal affairs of Colombia, by invitation. It proved to be one of the major successes of US foreign policy, and has been credited with stemming a potentially catastrophic security failure of the Colombian state. This book discusses the strategies and practices deployed by the Colombian government to influence US foreign policy decision making at the bureaucratic, legislative and executive levels, and is a distinctive contribution to our understanding of the dynamics of small power agency. Giving a clearer insight into the decision making processes in both the US and Colombia, this book founds its argument on solid empirical analysis assembled from interviews of the major players in the events including: Andres Pastrana, President of Colombia; Thomas Pickering, US State Department; Arturo Valenzuela, Senior Director for Inter-American Affairs at the NSA; General Barry McCaffrey, the US ‘Drug Czar’; and Dennis Hastert, Speaker of the US House of Representatives. Approaching the events in question from a bottom-up theoretical perspective that puts the emphasis on the facts of the case, this book will be of great interest to academics, students and policy makers in the field of foreign policy analysis, US foreign policy studies, and Latin American studies.

Book excerpt: This book provides robust insights into the current policies, trends, challenges and possibilities in the internationalisation of higher education in East and Southeast Asian countries, revealing emergent and new models and practices in this area, and discussing implications for mutual learning across different education systems.

Download or read book Design Analysis and Implementation of Development Projects written by Alberto D. Pena and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-07-08 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book offers important guidelines in analyzing the technical, economic, financial, administrative and organizational, environmental, commercial, and institutional aspects of development projects. It also suggests a format for organizing these aspects into one comprehensive design as it emphasizes the need for analyzing investments in their entirety as opposed to analyzing them in separate segments. Managers and technicians from national and local governments, business corporations, parastatals or public enterprises, non-governmental organizations, development and commercial banks, and national and international aid funding institutions who are directly or indirectly involved in planning and implementing development activities will find this book useful. Teachers and students in project management, finance, banking, economic analysis, and development management will also find valuable learning gains from the book. The concepts and procedure in designing and analyzing development projects are illustrated using hypothetical case studies. The discussions and illustrations will serve as important guidelines in the implementation of development projects.
Download or read book The Millennium Development Goals and Beyond written by Rorden Wilkinson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) have contributed to reductions in poverty and improvements in the human condition in many parts of the world since their "invention" in 2000 and 2001. It nonetheless remains the case that today, as on all the previous days of the twenty-first century, almost one billion people will go hungry. Debates about whether the MDGs have made a positive contribution to poverty eradication and/or whether they have achieved as much as they should have done are becoming more frequent as 2015 and the "end of the MDGs" approaches. This book highlights that active debate about what the MDGs have achieved and what that means for the crafting of a post-2015 international framework for action, must become a priority. The work begins by examining the global context of the goals from a variety of perspectives, and moves on to focus on the region that continues to be the most impoverished and which looks likely to fall short of meeting many of the MDGs: Africa. Presenting both a broad overview of the issues and drawing together prestigious scholars and practitioners from a variety of fields, this work provides a significant contribution to debates surrounding both global poverty and the success and future of the MDGs.
