From MarketWatch October 14, 2019 Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robinson Harris Public Policy Professor James A. Robinson Harris Public Policy Professor James A. Robinson was featured in MarketWatch, writing an opinion piece discussing how Ukraine can overcome a stagnating economy through the eradication of corruption. "President Donald Trump's attempts to involve Ukraine in his own corrupt dealings have given Zelensky the perfect opportunity for a symbolic gesture," wrote Robinson and his co-author, Daron Acemoglu. "He should publicly refuse to deal with the Americans until they sort out their own corruption problems (even if it means turning down tainted aid)." Full coverage available at MarketWatch.
