Elizabeth Pisani (2014) | Corruption Makes the World Go Round
Manage episode 314453469 series 2661077
When it comes to good governance, conventional wisdom has it that less corruption would translate into more economic growth, a healthier body politic and reduced likelihood of conflict. But what if this isn’t always the case?
Although there are cases where corruption has promoted conflict, in other instances it has helped restore peace in a country. A more nuanced and less ideological view of "corruption" is needed if countries are to fight graft without undermining peaceful co-existence.
Elizabeth Pisani is a London-based journalist and epidemiologist, best known for her work on HIV/AIDS.
