Scrooges or saviours?

The wealthiest countries aren't always the most generous with aid and trade to poorer ones. Foreign Policy magazine (http://www.foreignpolicy.com/) and the Center for Global Development (http://www.cgdev.org/) publish an annual ranking of the 21 wealthiest countries which shows how well they stack up as givers and how liberal they are on issues such as migration and technology policy. It's called Ranking the Rich and it's at http://www.foreignpolicy.com/story/files/story2540.php. Australia is 4th (up from 19 in 2003 and tying with the UK), ahead of the US at 7. Canada is 6th. Denmark and the Netherlands tie for first place. Posted by belinda at February 11, 2005 09:10 AM
