Aid Paradoxes in Afghanistan Building and Undermining the State

This book examines how foreign aid has affected Afghanistan's weak state since US intervention in 2001. It argues that the relationship between aid and state building is highly complex and that the effects of aid on weak states depends on donors' interests, aid modality and the recipient's pre-existing institutional and socio-political conditions.
