“Making every dollar count,” EA-related episode of In Pursuit of Development (podcast)

Link post

This is a linkpost for a new In Pursuit of Development episode where Dan and I talked about effective altruism, the capability approach, aid targeting, and the politics of foreign aid.

People here might be interested in, or have comments/​criticisms on:

  • how I discuss EA and maximization and SBF fallout,

  • what the capability approach is and how it can improve EA,

  • the politics of foreign aid and why I think concerns that aid will hurt governance in recipient countries are overblown,

  • how and why aid is targeted within countries

If people do have questions or criticisms, I’ll try to be somewhat active in the comments.
