Focusing on the role of media attention in shaping economic assistance, this book explores how policymakers respond to domestic political pressures influenced by news coverage. It emphasizes the responsiveness of typically insulated bureaucracies and examines the interplay of international and domestic politics across five countries: the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, France, and Japan. This comparative analysis offers insights into how media can drive governmental action in addressing both real and perceived issues.
