A series of six programmes
with Professor Peter Bauer
"The foreign aid crusade is a gigantic confidence trick. A well-meaning public has been conned by a motley coalition... which includes... disillusioned, power - and money - hungry academics, temperamental do-gooders and politicians in search of publicity."
In tonight's discussion from the Royal Institution, Professor Peter Bauer of the London School of Economics argues that foreign aid from the rich to the poor countries is rarely beneficial and often harmful. Among those who disagree with him are Judith Hart MP, and Lord Caradon; and they, and others, tackle Professor Bauer on some of his views.
