Dead aid

In 'Dead Aid,' Dambisa Moyo challenges the myth that billions of dollars in aid from wealthy countries have helped reduce poverty and increase growth in Africa.

Instead, she argues that aid has led to a vicious cycle of dependency, corruption, market distortion, and further poverty.

The book contrasts African countries that have rejected aid and prospered with those that have become aid-dependent.

Moyo offers a new roadmap for financing development that guarantees economic growth and a significant decline in poverty without relying on foreign aid.
