International Provider

Paper Summary:

The paper presents both sides of the question as to whether the United States should provide assistance to so-called "poor countries" or not. The paper offers this debate that is as old as the U.S. itself, with citations supporting the arguments made for each side. There is no "decision" made within the paper as to which policy is correct.

From the Paper:

"Political leaders in the world's richest nations frequently proclaim their fervent desire to end poverty worldwide and boast of their spending on foreign aid to poor nations. Throughout the course of this paper I shall examine both sides of the issue of providing international aid to poor countries; thus I will explore the rationale in favor of providing aid to poor nations, as well as exploring the rationale of those adhering to the ideology that so-called poor nations are not worthy of expenditure of resources from the United States. The United States has a long history of extending a helping hand to those people overseas struggling to make a better life, recover from a disaster or striving to live in a free and democratic country."
