ABSTRACT

Elsewhere in The Reality of Aid, NGOs argue that the eradication of poverty is an international public good and a moral imperative. There are many ways in which governments and people can make a contribution to eradicating poverty, but one is through resources. Aid is an international resource capable of being targeted on poverty. Taking aid as a percentage of GNP enables a like-wlth-like comparison to be made between individual country efforts to make a contribution to the eradication of poverty. https://s3-euw1-ap-pe-df-pch-content-public-p.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/9781315067063/79b7be5b-d2c8-49d0-8cce-ee7591ada356/content/figu34_1_B.jpg" xmlns:xlink="https://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"/>
