(2007)Department of Economics
- Abstract
- The aim of the study “Do changing patterns of governance affect Swedish aid?” is to examine if changes in governance in recipient countries of Swedish bilateral aid matter to Swedish aid and can cause changes in it.

The distribution of aid is afterwards studied by surveying the 15 countries that receive the most in 1995, 2000 and 2005. The governance components are thereafter analyzed in these countries to see if differences in governance between them can explain differences in aid level. Further, it is examined if changes in governance cause changes in aid per capita. Results... (More)

Further, it is examined if changes in governance cause changes in aid per capita. Results showed that differences and development in governance could not explain aid differences and did not cause changes in aid per capita. The conclusion is that governance seem until now only matter marginally. (Less)
