Ben Radley

I'm a Fellow in Development Studies at the Department of International Development of the London School of Economics. My research centres on the political economy of late industrialisation in low-income African countries, with a focus on the influence and effects of Northern-based transnational corporations (TNCs) on this process. I've been involved in international development for 15 years, including 10 years living and working in Kenya, Burundi and the DRC. During this time, I've worked with and advised various ministries, multilateral agencies and NGOs, including the ILO, the EU, DFID, GIZ, USAID and Oxfam.
