This paper discusses the reform of US development policy. The authors describe the problems of the existing policy framework and offer recommendations on how to improve it. The paper concludes that US development relies on aid that is too modest and too fragmented, fails to deploy non-aid tools to promote growth in poor countries, neglects the special challenges of weak and failing states and insists on unilateral initiatives and bilateral channels at the expense of working through multilateral institutions.
