This study reveals the pernicious effects of aid dependence and its perversion of Cambodian democracy. It analyses the period since international intervention liberated Cambodia from pariah state status in the early 1990s and shows how the country's social indicators and the integrity of its political institutions declined rapidly, while inequality grew dramatically. By outlining the terms through which countries can achieve better ownership of their development, the book offers alternatives for governments that are on the brink of collapse and dependent on foreign intervention and aid.
