Sweden\'s development aid policy has undergone dramatic changes in recent years, with consequences that extend far beyond our borders. Now, we invite you to a thought-provoking book salon with David Isaksson, editor-in-chief of Global Bar Magazine, who presents his new and highly relevant book: Development Aid Massacre - how Trump and the Swedish government parties rewrote the development aid map.
This in-depth description examines the extensive transformations that have taken place in global development aid. Isaksson highlights not only how Trump\'s return to power has shaped the international development aid map, but also how Sweden\'s development aid policy has been radically reformed since the 2022 election.
The book analyzes how Sweden\'s support to Ukraine and Palestine has developed, as well as the far-reaching consequences of the new direction of the Swedish government\'s policies that have linked migration and trade with development efforts. Readers also get a comprehensive overview of Sweden\'s development aid journey, from its beginnings in the 1950s to the present day, which gives an important historical perspective on today\'s debate.
Have these changes really led to a "development aid massacre" as the title suggests? And what do these upheavals mean concretely for Sweden, and above all for the poor in the world? David Isaksson guides us through the complexity and raises the tough questions.
This is a unique opportunity to delve into one of the most burning issues of our time. Your ticket includes a copy of the book, so you can continue reflection long after the book salon is over.
