Archived Theses and Dissertations

The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs)1 aim to address the needs of developing countries, and are scheduled to be accomplished by 2015. As the current efforts to meet these commitments2 do not seem to be on track to achieve this, a new international aid agenda has arisen.

In addition, the agenda emphasizes the importance of donor harmonization5 in response to national strategies and priorities. The proponents of the agenda anticipate that these changes in donor and …

They receive unfavourable and unjust treatment from the developed nations in the course of international interactions through non-reciprocal economic relationships, as well as domination in political, security, information, culture and educational aspects--all of which have direct and indirect impact upon …
