Rejuvenation of development assistance offered by the Southern donors has changed the landscape of the global aid architecture in the 21st century. India has re-emerged as a global provider of resources for development challenging the post-Cold War status quo and significantly impacting contemporary international economic relations. While North-South aid relations have been largely examined by scholars worldwide, the South-South cooperation for development remains a valid area of research, compellingly addressed in this book.
The monograph is an original attempt at describing present development cooperation from the perspective of an emerging economy in a comprehensive and accessible way. It navigates the reader through the complexities of development aid discourses, theories, institutions, actors and modalities. Focusing on India’s contribution,
it examines the evolution and current state of both theories and practices
of development aid, confronting South-South and North-South perspectives. India turns out to be a fascinating and little known contributor to the global aid system since its very beginning.
The book will be welcomed by anyone interested in the global system of development assistance in general as well as in the place and role of India in this system in
particular.
