International Development and Aid International Relations and Foreign Policy Electoral Systems and Political Participation

Abstract

We examine the strategic relationship between U.S. foreign aid disbursements and voting in the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA). Since 1985, U.S. law has stipulated that the State Department identify important votes and that USAID take the voting behavior of recipients in the UNGA into account in its disbursement decisions. We examine the implementation of this policy and the eects of linking aid to important votes in the UNGA on aid recipients’ voting decisions. We nd that the strategic use of aid disbursements indeed induces strategic voting.
