Public international law; Procurement law

This edited collection fills a significant gap in the literature by gathering contributions from the most prominent academics and practitioners of aid and procurement. It explores the economic, political and legal relationship between procurement and aid effectiveness in developing countries, and takes stock of current debates in the field. More specifically, the contributions analyse the failures and successes of current initiatives to foster effectiveness and streamline the aid procurement process, and address current themes emerging in the literature related to development, procurement and aid success. A pivotal and timely publication, Public Procurement and Aid Effectiveness will be of interest to a varied and multicultural international audience and a wide range of actors working on aid effectiveness, development, procurement and good governance initiatives in both donor and beneficiary countries.

Reviews for Public Procurement and Aid Effectiveness: A Roadmap under Construction

I have found the book to be truly excellent and very thought-provoking, not least because it covers much more than procurement as a conduit for the economic effectiveness of foreign/development aid. For sure, this core preoccupation of the aid community (and a fringe of procurement community) is addressed centrally, thoroughly and authoritatively in the book, including interdisciplinary perspectives from political scientists, economists, lawyers and leading practitioners at international institutions. The book is thus a very valuable source of information and analysis for anyone researching the field. -- Albert Sanchez-Graells, Professor of Economic Law, University of Bristol Law School * How to Crack a Nut *
