contents Foreign aid and human rights: the Latin American experience Joel A. Capellán Simonpeter Gomez Política Human rights • Foreign aid • Development assistance • Latin America • Organization for economic cooperation and Development This study attempts to answer the following question: What is the relationship between the human rightsrecord of Latin American states and the amount of foreign aid they receive? We examine the role humanrights play on the aid allocation for 12 donors over a 21 year period (1983-2002). Using a new and, wethink, more valid measure of human rights, we find, in general, that recipient respect for human rightsis not a major determinant of aid, with the exception of the United States and Germany and to a lesserextent Denmark, United Kingdom and France. These findings contradict the stated commitment thesestates have taken to make human rights an aspect of their foreign aid allocations. 2007 artículo científico 0716-1417 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=32427104 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=324 Revista de Ciencia Política application/pdf Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile Revista de Ciencia Política (Chile) Num.1 Vol.27
