Legal reforms have accompanied and have often played the central role in technical assistance programs around the world. The first law and development movement launched after World War II by legal scholars primarily from the United States brought new legal codes to countries in Latin America, Africa, and - to a lesser extent - in Asia. The major protagonists of this movement announced its failure in 1974. They conceded that well meaning reform efforts had been based on bold assumptions about the functioning of legal systems that were neither backed by a well developed theory nor had been tested empirically in their home country (the U.S.A.). Scholars and policy advisors were therefore unprepared for the challenges of the second major law and development movement that was launched after the collapse of the socialist systems in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. This proved essentially a repetition of the first movement: legal experts, including scholars and practitioners, swarmed formerly socialist economies with constitutions, codes, statutes, and regulations. [...] Proponents of the German or Dutch civil codes, American corporate law, European corporate law harmonization directives, English or American securities market and antitrust regulations, or newly designed model laws for secured transactions marketed the value of Western law to their counterparts in the East, backing their campaign to transplant their home legal system with financial aid promises and/or the prospect of joining the European Union. Ten years after the inception of the second law and development movement, countries in Central and Eastern Europe and in the Baltic region by and large follow European models at least in the area of commercial law. In the former Soviet Union, by contrast, the United States model has had a substantial impact in particular on corporate and bankruptcy laws. Moreover, many countries borrowed from different legal systems [...]. The scope of legal reforms undertaken in transition economies during this period has been likened to a legislative tornado. Yet, the results of these efforts have been mixed. While nobody has yet stood up and declared the death of the second law and development movement, there is a broad consensus that the impact of legal reform efforts has been at best limited. The most common complaint is that while the transplanted law is now on the books, the enforcement of these new laws is quite ineffective. In fact, empirical analysis suggests that there is little correlation between the level of legal protection afforded by statutes on the one hand, and measures for the effectiveness of legal institutions on the other. While Russia today can boast with the most refined corporate law in the region thanks to American advisors, shareholder rights are systematically trampled and Russia performs poorly on performance measures for the effectiveness of the judiciary and the trustworthiness of legal and administrative institutions.

Browne, Stephen: Aid and Influence - Patronage, Power and Politics, Routledge 2022, ISBN 9780367681555
From the publisher's website: This book turns the argument about aid effectiveness on its head. Since development assistance is inherently self-interested, a source of soft power, political manipulation and commercial opportunity, its real effectiveness could arguably be judged by the strength of donor influence and not by development impact. Its subjective nature means that its impact on development is often weak, mainly short-term and confined to limited and specific contexts.
Aid as influence was prevalent during the Cold War era. The connection is equally strong in this century’s newly bipolar world in which the contest is between western donors led by the United States, and China which is spending hundreds of billions of dollars on infrastructure as a means of influence in the global South. Influence permeates both bilateral and multilateral aid and in parallel with official aid, the rise of global philanthropy has seen it taken up by some of today’s billionaires.
The response by donors to the growing havoc caused by the three Cs – conflict, climate change and COVID-19 – confirms the main findings of the book, which concludes by outlining what aid without influence would look like. This book draws on the author's 40 years of experience of the aid industry and will be essential reading for development students, practitioners and policy makers alike.

While an independent judiciary is considered an indispensable component of the rule of law, attacks of the domestic political power on the independence of the judicial branch are observed today in several European States. The European judges (CJUE, ECtHR) appear to be the “last soldier standing” in the defense of judicial independence and they have in no case remained indifferent. This contribution contains an analysis of the dynamic approaches that the CJEU and the ECtHR have adopted in order to reinforce the guarantees of independence that domestic judges enjoy under European Law (EU and ECHR law). An emphasis is put on the international judicial function of these Courts as protective and promoting judicial independence at the national level, arguing that both Courts assumed their role as guarantors of the common European value of the rule of law through a proactive stance, without going, however, to the extremes. Furthermore, the paper provides an examination on the fact that the European Courts have adopted measures in order to assure the effectiveness of the European guarantees of judicial independence. A particular focus is put on the protection through interim measures as a means of assuring an effective protection of the independence of national judges. Considering a comparative analysis, the issue of the ECtHR’s potential in this regard is hereby tackled, notably after the recent evolution in the case-law of the CJEU.
