Detailed information

It was in 1977 - over 40 years ago! - that the conclusions of a major study on underdevelopment, commissioned by the United Nations, were published. Conducted by a team of outstanding experts led by the famous economist-statistician Wassily Leontief (hence the name "Leontief's Expertise" given to this important work), the study came to such bold conclusions that at least one of them should have been a bombshell. Here it is: "The real obstacles to the development of the Third World in general and of sub-Saharan Africa in particular are not physical (i.e. they are not related to climate, relief, the presence or absence of major rivers ...); rather, these obstacles are human (i.e. they are related to political, social and institutional organisation)". In other words, the key to the development of these regions is not directly in the hands of the Creator-God, but rather in the hands of ... his children who live there!
