How can this modest impact be explained? Based on three important reforms in the decentralization process in Mozambique, namely the ‘7 million’

Abstract:

This article examines how donors influence democracy through foreign aid. Focusing on development aid and democracy assistance, it considers three mechanisms through which aid is disbursed: the diffusion of norms and knowledge, the provision of incentives, and the use of coercion. The article first looks at different types of foreign aid before providing a conceptualization of the democratization process. It then discusses the mechanisms linking different types of aid with elements of democratization and how well these mechanisms have worked in practice. It argues that coercion has been most c

Abstract:

This chapter considers the response to the European banking and sovereign debt crisis, which resulted in the introduction of the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (BRRD). It also considers the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) and a Single Resolution Mechanism (SRM) which will be implemented to facilitate the supervision and resolution of certain financial institutions in the Eurozone. The chapter looks at the consequences of these reform measures and explains the salient features of the new framework of supervisory and resolution intervention. It also looks separately at the EBA technic

Abstract:

The spread of infrastructure requirements and variety in mechanisms used to secure contributions (infrastructure provision) from private sector was a reflection of the institutional framework in planning system.The study has identified that although both private and local authorities have a good understanding of the fundamental of concept of local infrastructure provision and the arguments for and against the use of private provision, there are still considerable areas of uncertainty surrounding the precise definition (as prescribed in the relevant legislations) and measurements of the key ele

Abstract:

Dispute resolution mechanisms in the project finance context are a means of enforcing the allocation of risksamong a project’s many participants. Swift, flexible, final, and enforceabledispute resolution mechanisms allow a project’s intended risk allocations to be maintained. This chapter identifies various dispute resolution mechanisms available to project participants. Much of the chapter is devoted to exploring the advantages and disadvantages of two dispute resolution regimes—litigation and international arbitration—including looking at enforcement. It considers how investment treaties pro

Abstract:

The successful use of special economic zones as economic tools for export-led industrial development in East Asia propelled a wave of similar initiatives across Africa. In Southern Africa, Zambia and South Africa instituted special economic zones in their respective legal and institutional frameworks in the 2000s as mechanisms for catalysing industrialization and employment creation by means of domestic and foreign investments. Using a case-study approach, we find that special economic zones in the Eastern Cape, South Africa, are largely latent drivers of growth and employment hampered by inad

Abstract:

This chapter argues that cooperation and coordination under the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (BRRD) may still be suboptimal as states can still prioritize their national interest. By making a distinction between coordination and cooperation it is also argued that while relevant authorities can, in principle, take a joint decision over the willingness to achieve a common goal, they may still act in an uncoordinated way. This may undermine the effectiveness of international supervisory action and in turn financial stability within, and possibly outside, the EU. The chapter reveals the
