The Effects of American Foreign Aid to Egypt, 1957-1987

The text contains a review of the past literature on the subject, the subject methodology, and both macro and micro level data analysis, with summary, conclusions, and recommendations. Employing a mixture of quantitative, qualitative and inductive methodology, this book examines those factors that dictated Egypt's economic development from 1957 to 1987, and then investigates the question: has the longevity and increase in American aid facilitated overall economic development (increased productivity and standards of living) in Egypt?
