Hi there,

Great page. It was very well laid out and super informative. I have a minor suggestion that might help clarify your points - you speak to the importance of neoliberalism in the aid phenomenon - it might be worth it to link a page dedicated to neoliberalism, or briefly define the term for readers.

Additionally, a very common critique of foreign aid lies in its potential contribution to conflict. That is, a country receives aid and it increases the incentive of other actors (e.g. paramilitary, guerrilla groups, etc.) to engage in violence as a means of acquiring these resources (e.g. food, money, etc.). I'd consider addressing this in your final section as it's a super contentious topic among scholars.

Otherwise, I thought you did an excellent job. Great work!
