Notes from Egypt: The Revolution Will Not Be Televised

Archive - Pre 2015By adminJanuary 21, 2009Leave a comment

After a long day of working with local researchers on corruption issues, your blogger finds himself awake and channel surfing at 4am. As it turns out, jihadist propaganda movies should never, ever be used as a jetlag cure. I flip on the tube, and with a few clicks get appalling clips of Israeli/Palestinian combat footage,…

Notes from Egypt: Power, Transparency and Accountability… and I’m Not Even in the Country Yet!

Archive - Pre 2015By adminJanuary 20, 20091 Comment

I’m back on the road this week, this time reporting on a visit to Cairo. Stalled at immigration control at Cairo International Airport, a run in with grumpy border guards has me thinking about accountability, rule of law… and the Bush legacy.

For those that bemoan Russia’s slide back to authoritarianism (our hands our raised too), remember: this isn’t happening in…

USA: The Fuzzy Side of Habeas Corpus

Archive - Pre 2015By adminJanuary 14, 2009Leave a comment

Think that US law requires that citizens be charged with a crime before being imprisoned? It does… except when it doesn’t. Welcome to the weird legal backwater of civil contempt, where a defendant’s guilt is presumed until they can prove otherwise. While the indefinite detentions at Guantanamo have (reasonably) gotten more attention, the stories collected…

Carrots, Sticks, & Aid Dollars: Documenting the “MCC Effect”

Archive - Pre 2015By adminJanuary 14, 2009Leave a comment

New from the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC), an analysis of the “MCC effect” — the catch-all term for the American aid agency’s indirect impact via their big money, pay-for-performance approach to policy change in countries receiving aid. Via email: I would like to bring a new publication to your attention entitled The “MCC Effect”: Creating…
