Description: | In the spring of 2007 the World Bank—the world’s largest and most influential development institution—had a sex scandal. The most mainstream of commentators were talking about development institutions, sex, and money in the same sentence.1 World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz was forced out of office on the grounds that he had used his influence to get his partner, development specialist Shaha Riza, a large pay raise when she was transferred out of the organi zation as a result of his appointment. In typically narcissistic W ashington DC fashion, this scandal was known as Rizagate. |
