Abstract:
|
The Development Assistance Committee (DAC) countries in the OECD have played a significant financial role in providing foreign aid for HIV/AIDS. In accounting for the convergence of AIDS funding behaviors, constructivist international relations theories would claim that the norms of global response to AIDS motivate foreign aid for AIDS by reshaping and redefining donors’ identity and preferences. More interestingly, the countries vary in the timing of initial funding decision and the size of funding as well as the pattern that the norms are transferred into domestic arena. The variations, I argue, are based upon distinctive domestic structure and domestic norms. In explaining the variations, I will examine the cases of the US and Japan, each of which has different domestic structure and domestic norms. I assume that the transnational advocacy networks or NGOs likely mobilize the US public to put social pressure on government in the liberal structure. In contrast, in Japan elite-learning is likely to work in interaction with other states, international organizations or NGOs. In addition, I suppose that idiosyncratic domestic norms concerning AIDS and foreign aid determine different domestic resonance of the international norms. For testing the hypotheses, I will conduct comparative case studies through process-tracing. |
