5.0 out of 5 stars Great read- but the elites will not listen, July 12, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Condemned to Repeat?: The Paradox of Humanitarian Action (Paperback)
Excellent book- well documented. The author's arguments are furthered bolstered by other writers that have exposed the corrupt, hypocritical, self-serving "aid" industry and their cynical collaboration with the kleptocrats and dictators of the world's vampire states. These other authors include:
---
Road to Hell: The Ravaging Effects of Foreign Aid and International Charity by Michael Maren
--
Famine Crimes: Politics & the Disaster Relief Industry in Africa (African Issues) by Alex de Waal
--
Africa in Chaos : A Comparative History by George B.N. Ayittey ---
A Bed for the Night: Humanitarianism in Crisis by David Rieff
--

The data is clear, but self-serving elites will continue to prosper and gullible Western taxpayers will continue to vote them into power. They will both continue prop up the kleptocrats and dicators of the world.
