The charter of African Economic Development
Growth, institutions and infrastructure, argued from the continent.
Claims about magnitudes need a source. Country cases are preferred to continental generalisations. We read one book a quarter and invite its critics rather than its author.
House rules

- 3
Changing your mind in public is the highest-status act in this circle.
- 4
Threads that stop being about the idea get closed or moved — not deleted.
