Africa: Democracy in Africa - Good or Bad for Economic Development?
[Daily Maverick] Rwanda, under the autocratic leadership of President Paul Kagame, has experienced relatively spectacular levels of economic growth. His admirers hold the country up as a model of why democracy isn't necessarily good for Africa. But the country is the exception, not the rule, and the reverse is true - democracy and economic growth are, indeed, good bedfellows.

Some of these patients don't survive -- even though malaria is preventable and treatable. I can't think of a person I know who has not been touched by malaria in my country.
