Time to think again -- The new aid era -- All aid's impacts: the bigger picture -- Pulling the strings: the reality of aid conditionality -- Institutions, institutions, institutions -- Aid, growth and confused academics -- A better future? -- Why is aid really going up? -- What is to be done? Africa is poor. If we send it money it will be less poor. It seems simple. Jonathan Glennie argues that government aid to Africa actually has many very harmful effects. He claims that aid has often meant more poverty, more hungry people, worse basic services for poor people and damage to already precarious democratic institution.
