The Washington Consensus and Armed Conflict: Impacts on health care and education

John Tirman

Development, 2005, vol. 48, issue 3, 35-40

Abstract: John Tirman explores how the assault on public institutions in the last two or three decades have created destabilizing conditions with particular reference to health and education. He suggests that the IFIs acknowledge the deficiencies of their early policies and even the Bush administration includes them in its Millennium Challenge Accounts. He looks at what happens in health and education during conflict in order to illustrate how poorly designed policies lead to tragic results.
