ASC Seminar: ‘Show me the Money’

Speaker: André Loozekoot (MSc), Erasmus University Rotterdam and Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Show me the money’ was a popular book presented by Transparency International to the Zambian members of parliament in 2006. The book disclosed how much money the government could not account for in the last 20 years. It was sold out within a month, signaling great public interest in financial accountability and the role of politicians. This trend is visible in many African countries, but does not in all countries result in stronger financial accountability systems. Why? Why do some parliaments demand more accountability from their government than others? This seminar presents the first results of a study into this question.
