Bog om Sovjetunionens økonomiske hjælp til underudviklede lande.

This study analyses the objectives behind Soviet economic aid to non-communist Third World countries from 1955 through 1989. Policy implications of competing strategic and interactionist perspectives on Soviet-Third World relations are examined with respect to three objectives: politics, trade and development and tested against the record of Soviet aid allocations. The results reveal important similarities between the foreign aid objectives of the Soviet Union and the United States and generalise findings from previous studies of Western aid programs.

This book presents the first complete statistical record of Soviet economic development assistance to 57 less developed countries since 1954 and provides notes on the historical background and methodology of assistance to each country.

This book presents a comprehensive comparison of economic aid programs by the United States and the Soviet Union to less developed countries. It examines aid to many of the non-Communist nations of Asia, Africa, the Near East, Latin America. Robert S. Walters views aid programs in terms of their objectives, the size and structure of disbursements, and operational and administrative principles. In addition he examines the delicate balance between trade policy and general foreign policy, and the difficulties and results experienced by the U.S. and Soviet Union in their respective programs.
