SUMMARY: Istituto Acton organized an event for the presentation of Peter T. Bauer's Dalla Sussistenza allo scambio. Uno sguardo critico sugli aiuti allo sviluppo (From subsidy to change, a critical view on foreign aid and development). The event took place at the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross before an audience of academics, business professionals, entrepeneurs and clergy.
