This book aims at uncovering the politics behind the provision of US foreign aid to Pakistan during three distinctive periods: the Cold War, the post-Cold War and the "war on terror". Focusing on a comprehensive analysis of aid allocation and delivery mechanisms, this book uncovers the primary factors behind historical as well as contemporary US aid to Pakistan so far not thoroughly and empirically studied, especially in the post-2001 period of the "war on terror". Furthermore, based on findings that have emerged from interviews with over 200 respondents, including government officials, representatives of donor aid agencies, the private sector, civil society organizations and primary beneficiaries of US-funded projects, this book offers significant insights to researchers, policy-makers and practitioners interested in the discipline of aid and development effectiveness. Making use of both quantitative and qualitative data and based on extensive fieldwork and primary data, this book fills a significant gap in the empirical analysis of US aid to Pakistan. As such, it will be of great interest to students and scholars of Asian and US politics, as well as to those who have teaching and research interests in disciplines such as international relations, history, strategic studies, international political economy and development studies.
"This paper will evaluate and assess the effectiveness of US assistance and aid to Pakistan as an instrument of US policy in the region. At a time when the US budget is under increasing scrutiny, some questions rightly are directed at foreign aid and whether it is productive. With Pakistan being one of the largest recipients of US assistance, detailed examination is indeed warranted as to how effectively aid is carrying out US objectives. Following an introductory session, this paper focuses on US national politico-strategic objectives and US military objectives in Pakistan as compared with Pakistan objectives; the record of recent US humanitarian aid and security assistance to Pakistan and a review of the effects of this aid on Pakistani opinion; and recommendations for applying this aid in the future to better affect public opinion and thus more successfully achieve US objectives."--Abstract.
This case study examines U.S.-Pakistan relations from 1989 to 1993, exploring the strengths and weaknesses of foreign aid as an instrument of U.S. foreign policy. It highlights the tension between employing aid for the development of foreign societies over the long run or as a tool to influence foreign governments for short-term policy purposes; the difficulties of using aid for multiple policy goals; and the challenges of democratization in developing countries and U.S. efforts to overcome them. The study also explores the impact of global events on domestic politics (and vice versa) in a developing country; nuclear nonproliferation and international narcotics control strategies; the impact of the end of the Cold War on U.S. security policy; and executive-legislative interaction in U.S. foreign policy.

The Council on Foreign Relations sponsors Independent Task Forces to assess issues of current and critical importance to U.S. foreign policy and provide policymakers with concrete judgments and recommendations. Diverse in backgrounds and perspectives, Task Force members aim to reach a meaningful consensus on policy through private and non-partisan deliberations. Once launched, Task Forces are independent of CFR and solely responsible for the content of their reports. Task Force members are asked to join a consensus signifying that they endorse "the general policy thrust and judgments reached by the group, though not necessarily every finding and recommendation." Each Task Force member also has the option of putting forward an additional or a dissenting view. Members' affiliations are listed for identification purposes only and do not imply institutional endorsement. Task Force observers participate in discussions, but are not asked to join the consensus. --Book Jacket.
