This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

As you read this summary, you will learn how to rebuild failed states.

You will also learn :

• that there are about 50 failed states in the world;
• that Haiti, Sri Lanka, Kosovo and Somalia are among them;
• that credit is a form of risk management;
• that high-risk financial instruments are directly responsible for the financial crisis of 2007-2008;
• that the notion of the construction-reconstruction of failed states is one of the consequences of this financial crisis.

One of the two authors of "Fixing Failed States", Ashraf Ghani, was Minister of Finance in the Transitional Administration in Afghanistan following the fall of the Taliban. That is to say, he speaks with full knowledge of the facts when he talks about the construction-reconstruction of failed states. His co-author, Clare Lockhart, is a senior official at the UN and the World Bank. She advised the government in Kabul from 2002 to 2005 and heads the Institute for State Effectiveness. Her background also allows her to speak loud and clear as an undisputed expert in this field.
