Episode Synopsis "Development economics: understanding growth"

"The White Man's Burden: Why the West’s Efforts to Aid the Rest Have Done So Much Ill and So Little Good" is one of the books written by the development economist William Easterly and the inspiration for this episode. We discuss some of the past and contemporary conceptions on economic development policy and compare cases of success and failure.
