The Rhetoric of International Development Targets and the Reality of Official Development Assistance

Summary: This paper examines the extent to
which poverty alleviation through
support for basic social services has
become part of the official
development assistance strategy
for donors.
It finds an alarming gap between the rhetoric of poverty
reduction on the one hand, and the features of ODA, especially to
basic services, on the other.
