  • "Why is foreign aid so often ineffective? Donors have slowly come to realize that the failure of foreign assistance is not rooted in insufficient funding, but is instead institutional in nature. On the one hand, local business owners are rarely involved in project design. On the other hand, without the ability to monitor and control the progress of interventions, donors face formidable challenges, such as unanticipated mistakes, malfeasance, and shirking. Answering the demand for foreign aid alternatives, Clifford Zinnes assesses a new class of "tournament" approaches that promise to improve on."@en
