This book brings fresh perspectives into the debate on aid effectiveness and aid relationships. Asia provides a varied picture with its combination of rapidly developing countries where aid plays a less central role such as China, Vietnam, and Thailand as well as more aid dependent countries such as Nepal, Sri Lanka and Mongolia.

This book developed as part of the international conference of the 20 years of the Arusha Declaration in 1986. It is divided into four parts. The introduction covers the discussion of the political events that took place after the international conference from 1986 to 1990. Part I consists of official speeches. Part II looks at the problem of the state and the Arusha Declaration while Part III examines the economic and social development of Tanzania. Part IV comprises the summary of the papers presented and ensuing debates. Two positions emerged during the debates. On the one hand, some of the participants argued that there was need to take into consideration both the development experience which Tanzania has gained and the prevailing constraint, and called for the Declaration to be revised. Other participants, on the other hand, argued that the Declaration was still relevant and that it should be retained in its original tenor. (DÜI-Hff)
