Trump Scorns the IMF’s Globalism, and Now He Gets to Vote on It

Christine Lagarde is racing through Uganda in a black SUV. It’s a bumpy road — not the only one the IMF chief is likely to encounter in the age of President Donald Trump.

Since World War II, America has set the agenda for the world economy. The International Monetary Fund has been one of its main tools. The Fund helped steady the finances of war-ravaged Europe, enthrone the dollar as the international currency and shore up U.S. allies from Britain to Korea. Above all, it promoted a Washington consensus based on the free movement of capital and goods. You could call it globalization.

Kenyan court upholds the closure of Bridge International Academies over failure to respect standards

Boaz Waruku, from the Africa Network Campaign on Education For All (ANCEFA), commented: “This judgement adds to the similar one in Uganda and is a strong affirmation that Bridge schools do not comply with the minimum education standards in the region. We’re extremely concerned that Bridge Academies, an international profit-driven company with investments that are counted in several billions of Kenya shillings, can come to African countries and charge fees from poor children in our communities without respecting basic laws and education standards of the country.”

Sylvain Aubry, of the Global Initiative for Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (GI-ESCR) added: “Put simply, together with the Ugandan case, this judgement shows that a multi-million dollars American company, which has the means and resources to comply with regulations, is not fulfilling basic educational standards of two African countries in which it operates. Two UN human rights committee have already raised concerns about this situation. The Government and County authorities are therefore right in taking steps to fulfil their human rights obligations by engaging in dialogue with operators that do not respect standards, and eventually closing them if necessary. It will now be important for the Government to ensure all children affected have access to public schools, as requested by the Judge.”
