"This book explores South Korea's experience as an aid recipient, as an aid donor, and as an inter-Korea aid provider. Analysing case studies of international aid both received and dispensed by South Korea, from the end of the Korean War until the present day, this collection provides a novel lens through which to explore South Korea's development pathway.
