Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. 2nd Edition. xxiv+317 pages with appendix and index. Octavo (8 1/2" x 5 3/4") bound in original publisher's green cloth with black and red lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. Second printing. Mende, a former senior United Nations official, likens aid to an artichoke: attractive in its bloom, but many leafy layers guard the edible portion. Once peeled, Mende finds that the $13.5 billion in aid that the ""rich nations"" officially claimed to have given in 1969 actually amounts to only perhaps $3 billion, or one-tenth their domestic advertising expenditures. Moreover this $3 billion is quickly devoured by repayment of the underdeveloped countries' debts, so that in 1969 Latin America repaid $87 for every $100 borrowed, and by 1977 will pay $130 for every $100. Mende concludes that, ignoring the obvious intent of military aid, economic assistance is mostly ""trade promotion, or devoured by debt servicing, remittance of profits, and capital flight."" The problem is compounded by the lack of industrial and educational infrastructure, and by corruption, arms buildups, the ""brain drain,"" and the poor countries' elites, who willingly cooperate with their nations' exploiters. Mende sees no hope for significant change in rich-poor nations' dealings, no hope for any ""Alliance for Progress"" schemes or even for an increase in ordinary aid. His solution is heavily colored with peasant populism: the poor nations should repudiate their present ties with the rich; teachers and priests should ""awaken the political consciousness and dignity of the people,"" while ""in the rich countries people in revolt against mechanical commercialism and against money. . .may seek liberating change for both sides."" Mende suggests that rich-nation scientists create and administer private development funds to research problems of the have-nots. His success in pinpointing the major failure of aid -- it frequently produces obverse results and leads to ""recolonization"" -- is offset by the confused, dubious, and weakly stated conclusion and prescription. Condition: Former library copy. Edges lightly sunned, "Discard" stamped on front end paper. Jacket corners lightly chipped else a very good copy in a near fine copy.
