Why the once respected charities have published careless and uncomfortable publicity, such as its latest booklet, The recipient is not a manufacturer: unfair poverty and colonial wealthIntersection
In recent years, does it not hurt enough to its reputation? The Guige and Downs started as the Oxford Famine Remedy Commission that the multinational league organized by non -governmental organizations.
It still has intellectual standards, or is it captured by virtue signals that indulge in it? The recipient is not a manufacturer Suggested the latter.
It began to criticize economic inequality in the world today, and power and wealth are concentrated in organizations such as multinational companies and the World Bank and International Monetary Fund. Although such criticism is almost not primitive, if it is honest and serious about the appropriate activities of anti -poverty charities.
However, it discredit its own cases by transparent prejudice and ridiculous arguments. It claims that the inequality in the world is explained by colonialism, as if it is the primitive sin of human beings.
Its most attractive assertion is that between 1765 and 1900, the wealth of “the richest 10 %” from the United Kingdom is equal to US $ 33.8 trillion (£ 27 trillion) -The excitement is enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough to make it enough. The entire money carpet carpet carpet rugs London four times with fares of £ 50.
In addition, the report shows that the British also owns $ 33 trillion (26.7 trillion pounds) slavery wealth. Through simple arithmetic, this comprehensive torrential product is about $ 1 million for every man in the UK. Can I share it?
I describe the report as careless-serious allegations. This is a situation. It claims that Le Shi has “calculated” the sum of the sum of the extortion from India. When people look for clarification, footnote refers to a separate “methodology” document.
If you can track this, it does not include comments on methodology, but only lists two Indian Marxist historians, and their allegations are fully discredited. Therefore, Le Shi did not calculate anything: it copied some cunning statistics that cannot be explained.
What is the reality of the Indian economy under the British government? A general “non -colonization” argument is that in 1600 (China and India, the largest population, and the largest economy), India’s estimated share in the world economy, compared its share in 1900 in 1900 , This is much lower. The real reason is that industrialization has increased productivity in developed countries and has changed the world economy. Nevertheless, by 1914, under the leadership of British Raj in the United Kingdom, the regular famine in India has been eliminated by railway transportation-it has the fourth largest network in the world and is 35 times that of China. It has the fourth largest cotton industry in the world and is much higher than Japan.
In the independence period, it has the most advanced industrial economy in Asia. And British colonial exploitation? British India’s taxes are lower than independent countries and can use cheap capital and technology. Indian workers and enterprises are the main economic participants of the entire empire.
The saddest thing in this document is how it provides excuses for today’s global corruption and authoritarian governments. A few centuries ago, their wrong government attributed to colonists in some way.
The report cannot completely ignore the huge and growing wealth inequality of South America, the Middle East and Asia. It acknowledged that the number of billionaires in India has increased by 21 % since 2023. It did not disclose that the 24 government ministers of the Indian government in 2021 are facing serious criminal charges.
How convenient to blame the liability on the 18th century. Who is the desire to get? It seems too obvious.
