在“后华盛顿共识”中，贸易援助（AfT）作为一种创新的捐助国支持形式获得了突出地位。AfT机制被称赞为使贸易自由化协议（无论是在多哈回合还是在双边协议中）与减贫目标保持一致的一种手段。本文通过对多边世界贸易组织和双边欧盟-非洲、加勒比和太平洋谈判中的“道德经济”中的AfT话语进行批判性分析，指出了捐助国语言在使不对称的南北贸易体系合理化方面的战略目的。此外，它通过审查随后的一些私营部门活动和对假定受益者的影响，以及将援助与执行不适当的政策联系起来，对援助的“发展”凭据提出质疑。
Aid for Trade (AfT) has gained prominence as an innovative form of donor support in the ‘post’-Washington Consensus. AfT mechanisms have been praised as a means of aligning trade liberalisation deals (whether in the Doha Round or within bilaterals) to poverty reduction objectives. This article, through critical analysis of AfT discourse within the ‘moral economies’ of multilateral World Trade Organization and bilateral European Union–African, Caribbean and Pacific negotiations, points to the strategic purposes of donor language in rationalising asymmetric North–South trade systems. Moreover, it questions the ‘development’ credentials of AfT assistance by examining some of the ensuing private sector activities and the impact on the supposed beneficiaries, and the tying of AfT disbursements to the implementation of inappropriate policies.
