"To enable it to carry out its assignment under Senate Resolution 214, the Subcommittee on Technical Assistance Programs in 1954, under the chairmanship of Senator Hickenlooper, solicited the views of American citizens stationed or residing in countries receiving technical assistance. The reports received in late 1954 and early 1955 in response to this request are of such interest that the subcommittee directed Mis Morella Hansen of the committee staff to summarize them in order to make them readily available to subcommittee members and others concerned witht he technical assistance programs."--foreword.
Since the end of the Second World War, economic assistance has turned into the extremely important instrument of regulating international relations. However, the significance of foreign aid becomes even greater for the periods of restructuring the system of international economic relations, when it is necessary to overcome nationalistic barriers in order to influence the character and direction of recipients' economic development. At the times of serious international political and military crises, foreign aid can change its destination from economic development to security goals. During Eisenhower's presidency the struggle between these two tendencies, which were formulated in the so-called 'development assistance' and 'mutual security' doctrines, was waged particularly aggressively and uncompromisingly, since the control over foreign aid allowed any party to direct, to a considerable degree, the entire world order building process.
