Dambisa Moyo's book, Edge of Chaos, argues that democracy, while often touted as the best system for fostering economic growth, has not always delivered in developing nations. The book presents a critical analysis of the relationship between democracy and economic growth, highlighting the limitations of democracy in achieving sustainable economic progress. Moyo asserts that, while democracy is not inherently ineffective, it can be vulnerable to short-term thinking, political instability, and poor governance. She proposes reforms to strengthen democratic systems to better facilitate economic growth, arguing for pragmatic governance focused on long-term strategies and sustainable policies.
