Abstract

This study aims to analyse and compare the determinants of development aid policy between Eastern European donors (the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic, Slovenia, and Poland) and East Asian donors (South Korea, China, and Japan). This research has found that all of these donor cases show a tendency to integrate the global norms of the UN MDGs in their aid policies, while only OECD DAC member donors tend to apply DAC standards in their policies. At the same time, this study argues that, in general, political interests and commercial interests have become important determinants in the aid policy decision-making process, while humanitarian purpose has become less influential. In the end, the findings of the study imply that the aid policy determinants theory, which is built upon traditional donors’ experiences, can be applied to both Eastern European and East Asian donor cases.
