Country-focused Bulletins
January 19, 2022 USA/Africa: Bronx Fire Devastates Gambian Community
�This is the heart of the problem. If housing vulnerable people is an asset
class � not a social good, or a human right � then generating returns for
investors will always be in a zero-sum relationship with providing safe
housing for those people. Landlords will always be in the middle; and when
they�re taking sides, as they must in housing for profit, investors will
always win.� - Annia Ciezadlo
December 23, 2021 USA/Africa: Pandora Papers Keep Giving
2021 was a banner year for attention to national and international tax reforms to reduce tax evasion and avoidance, with legislation in the United States spearheaded by the FACT Coalition and a global reform deal proposed by the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). But the Pandora Papers also demonstrated the pervasive scale of illicit financial flows that siphon off wealth into an �offshore� world of secrecy.
July 27, 2021 USA/Global: Let Cuba Live!
The Biden administration has now been in office for six months,
along with a narrow Democratic majority in Congress. So it seems an
appropriate time for a report card. I offered my evaluation in another AfricaFocus Bulletin sent out today, entitled �Building Back Better? Or Not?� But as I was finalizing that Bulletin, I realized that the rising U.S. attacks on Cuba are a key indicator of how things are going.
