Hey! I thought your wiki page on foreign aid was super informative. Honestly you went right into it and I don't have much to add. But if you wanted to further expand on the benefits and/or critiques of foreign aid perhaps you could make subsections in those sections about when foreign aid worked for a country and when it did not? Such as when the U.S. was involved in conflicts post-WWII that were "necessary" (Korea, Iraq, the Dominican Republic, etc.). Additionally, you could go into how the U.S. has a mixed record of helping countries rebuild into democratic societies. Foreign aid for South Korea and Taiwan may be argued what helped lead those countries into their current state. I believe it was Britain who poured funds into Taiwan and helped it become an international banking centre it is today? Chile also received massive foreign aid and it turned out fairly successful. As for failures, you could perhaps talk about the U.S. and Iraq or Afghanistan. Then again, you may not want to take your research in too much of a U.S.-centric approach, haha. I guess it just so happens that the existing order is predicated on U.S. hegemony and maintaining that structure (at least for now) is vital for stability.

Good luck on the rest of your wiki!
