Abstract
The correlation between foreign aid and democratization has a contentious history in the field of international affairs. The paradigm that foreign aid can be used to achieve democratization in foreign political systems underscores to the centrality of democracy in Western societies. This thesis explores the relationship between foreign aid and democratization in sub-Saharan Africa.
