Download or read book Strategic Foreign Assistance Transitions written by Daniel F. Runde and published by Center for Strategic & International Studies. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Justifying traditional U.S. assistance to middle-income countries is an increasingly difficult proposition, and refocusing limited U.S. government development resources away from middle-income countries offers an efficient way to identify savings in the foreign assistance budget. This is not the first time that the U.S. government has faced such questions, and it can draw upon past transitions--not all successful--for a variety of valuable lessons for repurposing the United States' relationship with middle-income countries. This report begins with a brief introductory chapter on the main issues and themes. Chapter 2 considers the experiences of South Korea, Lithuania, Costa Rica, Portugal, and Tunisia as case studies of countries with relatively successful U.S. assistance transitions. Chapter 3 examines Brazil, India, Russia, and Panama, four middle-income countries with which the United States can shift its assistance relationship toward a focus on bilateral trade and cooperation interests. Chapter 4 offers nine specific recommendations for shifting the United States' relationships with middle-income countries from assistance to true partnerships. Chapter 5 concludes.

Download or read book Reforming and Reorganizing U S Foreign Assistance written by Jeanne Shaheen and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the final report of the bipartisan CSIS Task Force on Reforming and Reorganizing U.S. Foreign Assistance. As the Trump administration attempts to curb government spending, particularly in foreign assistance, this study reviews past attempts at reorganizing the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the U.S. Department of State, and it provides recommendations for the new administration. The task force consisted of former civil and foreign service officers and is co-chaired by Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) and Senator Todd Young (R-IN). The report addresses the potential damage that can occur if these budget cuts are not done in an informed and effective manner. It suggests that an uninformed merger of USAID/State could damage U.S. national security and prosperity and adversely affect U.S. leadership and impact abroad. The task force members have lived and worked through the Obama and Bush administrations and have important perspectives on how such reform and reorganization can be done in a productive way to maximize efficiency and resources.

Book excerpt: This book examines how the United States's extensive nation-building and stability operations will continue to evolve in the 21st century in the face of ever-growing budgetary concerns and constraints. Stability, Security, Reconstruction, and Transition Operations: A Guide to the Issues puts the people, places, and events crucial to nation-building and security operations through U.S. experiences under the microscope. This book focuses on the period after the Cold War, when U.S. operations proliferated, but also outlines the development of U.S. strategic decisions on nation-building and stability operations in a chronological fashion, providing documentation of these actions throughout American history. Original documents are provided and referenced to clarify concepts. With the increased attention on recent events in Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, and Libya, the United States's actions and policies of nation-building are now a key public policy discussion topic, and an understanding of these topics is critical for students, scholars, and general readers alike.

Download or read book Dilemmas of Transition in Post Soviet Countries written by Joel C. Moses and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2003 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the tensions inherent in transition, this perceptive book offers a wide-ranging overview of the impact of democracy and capitalism on the former Soviet republics. Leading scholars assess the region's daunting problems in the key realms of privatization, democratization, foreign investment, agrarian reform, local governance, and market economics. The contributors argue that the central dilemma facing all these fledgling countries is the inherent contradiction between the immediate pursuit of privatization and foreign investment and the long-term policy goal of democratization. Offering both theoretical and comparative perspectives on the far-reaching implications of nation-building and democratic transition, this valuable study will enable both students and scholars to comprehend the unique difficulties of transition.
