⁉️ What if the most dangerous forms of corruption are perfectly legal? We obsess over bribes and dishonest politicians. But what about lobbying, political influence, and powerful elites who help write the rules? Michael Johnston challenges some uncomfortable assumptions

Is corruption the world's favorite excuse for everything that goes wrong? 🎧 Listen to Michael Johnston about why fighting corruption is far more complicated than we think. And why wealthy democracies should stop lecturing the rest of the world. #Corruption #GlobalDevelopment

So I just finished a book. The goal is to try to understand how foreign aid affects elections and democratic accountability -- something I've been thinking about for a long time now. The book is free to read at cup.org/3U9VVxO. (1/n)
Dependency Politics by Ryan Jablonski Examines how democracy works in aid-dependent countries, challenging conventional wisdom on how aid affects elections and public policy. πŸ“š cup.org/3U9VVxO

We are more pessimistic than chimpanzees. Ask if extreme poverty doubled, halved, or held steady over 20 years. Most say doubled. It halved. We are not uninformed, we are misinformed. Doom is not neutral, it breeds surrender. Our season finale, on the politics of hope. LinksπŸ‘‡

The future of development will not be decided for Africa! Aid is shrinking. Multilateralism is weakening. AI & climate transitions are reshaping economies. But across recent consultations, we heard not despair. But urgency, clarity, & agency. The crossroads may be the best road.
