New Development Blog: “Aid Watch”

Economics Professor William Easterly of NYU has launched “Aid Watch,” a new blog that is “just asking that aid benefit the poor.”  Check out Easterly’s inaugural post in which he takes on World Bank President Robert Zoelleck’s recent request for a stimulus package for the world.  Whether you agree or disagree with Easterly’s “tough love” approach to international aid and aid agencies, it looks like a blog to watch.   Welcome to the blogosphere!
