Por falar na LSE, uma ilustração de como o poder facilmente corrompe. Pela positiva, é de louvar ainda assim o exemplo – pouco comum em países como Portugal – de transparência mesmo em circunstâncias pouco abonatórias: Statement on Libya
The School has had a number of links with Libya in recent years. In view of the highly distressing news from Libya over the weekend of 19-20 February, the School has reconsidered those links as a matter of urgency.
LSE Enterprise has delivered executive education programmes to Libyan officials, principally from the Economic Development Board, and managers. That programme has been completed, and no further courses are in preparation. We have also received scholarship funding in respect of advice given to the Libyan Investment Authority in London. No further receipts are anticipated.
LSE Global Governance – a research centre at the School – accepted, with the approval of the School’s Council, a grant from the Gaddafi International Charity and Development Foundation, chaired by Saif-al-Islam, one of Colonel Gaddafi’s sons and an LSE graduate. This note| from LSE Global Governance explains how that money has been used to date, on a North African programme of study, principally involving civil society issues. In current difficult circumstances across the region, the School has decided to stop new activities under that programme. The Council of the School will keep the position under review.
The School intends to continue its work on democratisation in North Africa funded from other sources unrelated to the Libyan authorities.

“é de louvar ainda assim o exemplo – pouco comum em países como Portugal”
De louvar? Francamente, esta atitude da LSE parece-me de uma imensa hipocrisia.
Enquanto Khadafi estava por cima era só colaboração. Agora que parece que ele ou caiu ou está quase a cair, que horror, vade retro Satanás, Khadafi? Praticamente nem o conhecemos…
