Routledge Israeli Development Aid to Sub-Saharan Africa Book

Explore the complex dynamics of Israeli foreign policy through this academic study on development aid in Sub-Saharan Africa. This book examines how Israel uses technical aid as a tool of soft power to build stronger bilateral and multilateral relations. By focusing on the concept of soft power, the text analyzes how development cooperation can increase a donor nation's attractiveness on the global stage. Covering a wide historical range from the 1950s to the present day, the research investigates the specific resources Israel utilizes to support African nations. It looks at the combination of ideological and pragmatic motives that drive these aid programs. This is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in foreign policy analysis, international relations, and the history of economic cooperation between Israel and the African continent.
