Over the last 50 years more than 1 trillion dollars in development related aid has been transferred from rich countries to the continent of Africa and yet few would argue that it has achieved anything near sustainable economic growth and poverty reduction. This episode of the Glass Bead Game travels to Kisumu, Kenya in order to understand the concept of Aid Free Development.What does it mean for one country to consider itself more developed than another.
