Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: The visibility of foreign aid has increased considerably over the course of the past year. Yet the factors shaping aid policy are not well understood. In particular, enduring differences across nations in terms of their aid programs are at odds with most standard international relations theories. In this paper, I argue that such differences are a result of differences in how policy-makers in different donor states think about the purposes of development assistance. These different ?frames?, in turn, are strongly shaped by differences in national identity and experience. Using data from legislative debates on aid policy in Belgium, Italy, the Netherlands, and Norway, I show that national identity is a crucial factor in explaining differences in how aid programs were set up and in how initial aid recipients were chosen; differences whose impact continues to be visible today.
