We live in a new reality of aid. Gone is the traditional bilateral relationship, the old-fashioned mode of delivering aid, and the perception of the third world as a homogenous block of poor countries in the south. Delivering Aid Differently describes the new realities of a 200 billion aid industry that has overtaken this traditional model of development assistance. As the title suggests, aid must now be delivered differently. Here, case study authors consider the results of aid in their own countries, highlighting field-based lessons on how aid works on the ground, while focusing on problems in current aid delivery and on promising approaches to resolving these problems.

Ende Oktober 1995 fanden die ersten pluralen Präsidentschafts- und Parlamentswahlen in Tansania seit Ende des Einparteisystems statt, die bestehende Hoffnungen auf eine freie und faire Abstimmung schwer enttäuschten. Aber auch die Reaktion der internationalen Wahlbeobachter entsprach nicht den Erwartungen, vermieden sie doch eine eindeutige Verurteilung der Defizite des Wahlprozesses. Der Artikel beschreibt sowohl die Fehler bei der Durchführung der Wahlen als auch die Versäumnisse der Wahlbeobachter und gibt Empfehlungen für künftige Wahlen in Tansania und das Verhalten von Beobachtermissionen.
