Samenvatting
Paul Hunt stelt aan de orde dat ---1---. Hij noemt de negatieve gevolgen
ervan voor de ontwikkelingslanden, namelijk dat de gezondheidszorg
daaronder lijdt en dat er negatieve financiële gevolgen zijn, en hij noemt
het positieve effect voor de rijke landen, namelijk dat ---2---. Hij noemt ook
een gunstig effect voor de ontwikkelingslanden, maar relativeert dit met
de uitspraak dat ---3---. Hij betoogt dat de rijke landen hypocriet zijn
omdat zij zelf profiteren van het geven van ontwikkelingsgeld. Hij noemt
een aantal cijfers die illustreren dat ---4---, en besluit met de stelling dat er
op mondiaal niveau meer aandacht moet komen voor dit probleem.
