Abstract
⺠We investigate whether aid has affected the political regime of recipient countries. ⺠A panel of 64 aid-recipients over 1967-2002 is employed, because of data limitations. ⺠Aid decreases the probability of observing a democratic regime in a recipient country. ⺠This effect is sensitive to economic and social conditions. ⺠Economic liberalization moderates the negative political impact of aid.
