Beschreibung:
Dambisa Moyo, geboren 1970 in Sambia, wurde berühmt durch das Buch "Dead Aid", in dem ausgerechnet sie als Afrikanerin das Ende jeder Entwicklungshilfe fordert. Sie wird vom WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM zu den "young global leaders" gezählt, lebt in London und ist u.a. Schirmherrin der Wohltätigkeitsorganisation "Absolute Return for Kids" (ARK) und Vorstandsmitglied der "Lundin for Africa Foundation" (LFA).
We all want to help. Over the past fifty years $1 trillion of aid has flowed from Western governments to Africa, with rock stars and actors campaigning for more. But this has not helped Africa. It has ruined it. Dambisa Moyo's excoriating and controversial book reveals why millions are actually poorer because of aid, unable to escape corruption and reduced, in the West's eyes, to a childlike state of beggary.Dead Aid shows us another way. Using hard evidence to illustrate her case, Moyo shows how, with access to capital and with the right policies, even the poorest nations can turn themselves around. First we must destroy the myth that aid works - and make charity history.
