My own view is instead that we need to trim back our objectives to things which can be achieved largely through local institutions. That means we can't fix every problem! It places hard limits on what an intervention can achieve and we need to accept those limits.

You have a doctorate in African history and taught at the University of Ghana under N'Krumba as my professor had done? I just had the year. The colonial rule didn't penetrate the hinterlands. A lot of it was rule by proxy.

Africa isn't the only place where colonial rule happened. One could quite fairly argue *all* American states, North and South, are colonial states. We only don't think of them that way because of how successfully they have suppressed the original inhabitants.
