Abstract

China's rise is ushering in a new era of geostrategic contestation involving foreign aid. In many traditional OECD donors, aid policy is changing as a result. We report on a survey experiment studying the impacts of rising Chinese aid on public opinion in traditional donors. We randomly treated people with vignettes emphasising China's rise as an aid donor in the Pacific, a region of substantial geostrategic competition. We used a large, nationally-representative sample of Australians (Australia is the largest donor to the Pacific). As expected, treating participants reduced hostility to aid and increased support for more aid focused on the Pacific. Counter to expectations, however, treatment reduced support for using aid to advance Australian interests. These findings were largely replicated in a separate experiment in New Zealand. Knowledge of Chinese competition changes support for aid, but it does not increase support for using aid as a tool of geostrategy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

As emerging economies become richer, their aid budgets will likely continue to grow. Recent analyses of aid from nonmembers of the Organisation for Economic Development and Co-operation (OECD) 1 have helped clarify its distinctive features. 2 However, although commentators often note the differences between OECD and non-OECD aid, few have undertaken comparative case studies. This chapter compares Indian and Australian aid through an analysis of volumes, recipients, modalities, and objectives. It draws on available statistics for both countries and recent research into new and traditional aid donors. Overall, we argue, the differences between these two aid programmes are more striking than the similarities.
