Clark Gascoigne is the Communications Director at Global Financial Integrity in Washington, DC.

The UK Department for International Development (DFID) released a new White Paper on International Development today entitled “Eliminating World Poverty: Building our Common Future.”  At first glance it seems to have a lot of good ideas in it.

Richard Murphy’s been blogging quite a bit about it over at the Tax Research blog.
