A World Connected - Two Approaches to Development
Trecho: Contrast this Forbes article - which describes how a global corporation brings production knowledge and trust to developing countries - with a recent NYT article called "Kenyan Village Serves as Test Case in Fight on Poverty."
The latter article describes Jeffrey Sachs, a professor at Columbia University, and his billion-dollar-plus Earth Institute's development agenda. This philathropic group is spending huge sums of money carefully to orchestrate the development of a handful of developing-world villages. So far, EI is working in two villages in Africa. While EI's goals are laudable, their methodology lies in sharp contrast with more organic solutions with similar goals, i.e. to eradicate poverty, integrate the developing world into the lucrative global market, and help create lasting institutions.
