How migrant remittances respond to homeland crises
Many countries rely on the cash and non-cash remittances their migrants abroad send back. But do migrants increase or decrease these remittances in times of socioeconomic crises back home? This study examines the remittance behaviour of Cabo Verdean migrants in response to economic shocks and natural disasters back in their homeland. With one of the highest migration rates in the world, Cabo Verde's migrants, and the money and goods they send bac…
Cabo Verde and the MCA foreign aid programme
In 2005, Cabo Verde became the second African country to receive the new foreign aid programme of the USA, the Millennium Challenge Account (MCA). It was among the few recipients of a second grant. Foreign aid has always been a controversial and hotly contested issue, and the MCA is no exception. This paper, based partly on personal experience with the programme, provides a critical examination of the nature, process and implementation of the MCA…

Tourism-led growth results in real economic gains. However, …

In response, Cape Verde and other small states have been placing increasing focus on migration as a development resou…

Dating back to the late 1970s, security cooperation has been a byproduct of two different sets of factors, strategic and military organizational, that propelled the two countries independently but simultaneously toward peaceful settlement. The 1979-80 settlement of disputes over hydroelectric power and nuclear …
