Abstract·Keywords
Though promoting democracy in African states has been one of the key priorities of international assistance and a basis for aid conditionality, the impact of developmental aid on democratic reforms in African states is highly debated. This paper contributes to this debate by exploring the influence of the EU official development aid disbursement on democracy scores in African countries. The findings based on the correlation and regression analysis of the panel data for 33 Sub-Saharan African states with British and French colonial legacies in 2005-2022 demonstrate that higher disbursements of the EU developmental aid are associated with higher freedom scores, while the reduction in development assistance does not result in better performance in terms of democracy. Furthermore, countries with a French colonial legacy demonstrate lower democracy scores in contrast to those with a British colonial legacy. Finally, Chinese economic engagement in Africa has a positive association with democracy scores.
