br., ENVOI DE L’AUTEUR, (couv. lég. passée), bon état « Le Fonds Européen de Développement est l’instrument financier de [la] coopération » entre la Communauté européenne (« pays du Nord ») et les pays dits ACP (« pays du Sud »), au sein d’une politique en faveur du développement dont l’origine tient à ce qu’elle est élaborée depuis les indépendances au début des années 60. « Bien qu’il n’ait pas la personnalité juridique et ne ressemble en rien à la Banque Mondiale ou à la Banque Européenne d’Investissement, il canalise la quasi-totalité des opérations financières effectuées au profit des pays bénéficiaires. Cet ouvrage décrit avec une minutie peu commune le rôle et le fonctionnement de cet instrument et par le fait même les différentes modalités – et elles sont multiples – de l’aide financière aussi bien que de l’assistance technique accordée par la Communauté à ses partenaires du Tiers Monde », mais également les « aspects juridiques de la coopération, tant au niveau des projets proprement dits que de l’administration et du contrôle financier et politique du FED. » [M. Lelart, Études internationales, 1996, 27 (4), p. 961-962].
