Abstract

At the turn of the century, I was hunched over a clammy steel desk in a far-flung project office, listening to my counterparts explain how many times in the recent past this particular Ministry had been bombed. Hearing something like this would be enough to get anyone thinking about their future. And it did stimulate my thinking. Over the next year, as I journeyed from Central Asia to the Caribbean on various development projects, I plotted my next move.
