520 The first comprehensive account of U.S. development aid
policies and implementation operations in Africa, Asia,
and Latin America, this work is a unique contribution to
world history and to the extensive literature on Third
World development. Butterfield begins with the remarkable
story of why, in 1949, President Truman surprised
Americans with his unprecedented development aid policy.
He then describes the major alterations in U.S.
development aid strategy and operations from 1950 to 2000.
Drawing upon his long experience both in Washington and in
country aid missions, Butterfield puts a human face on the
story by weaving real world vignettes into his narrative.
The survey addresses the role of Congress, important
program foundations established in the 1950s, creative
initiatives of the 1960s, frustrated promises in Vietnam.
It explores the Third World's unexpected population
explosion; America's evolving technical assistance work in
the core sectors such as agriculture, education, health,
and administration; and initiatives to reach the rural
poor and promote the development role of women. It also
comments upon linkages between policy dialogue and
financial aid to promote market-oriented policy reforms,
Africa's lagging development, and the decline of U.S.
development aid in the 1990s
