George Ayittey (born 1945) is a Ghanaian economist, author and president of the Free Africa Foundation in Washington DC. He is a professor at American University,〔(Faculty page at American University )〕 and an associate scholar at the Foreign Policy Research Institute.〔(Bio at Foreign Policy Research Institute )〕 He has championed the argument that "Africa is poor because she is not free", that the primary cause of African poverty is less a result of the oppression and mismanagement by colonial powers, but rather a result of modern oppressive native autocrats. He also goes beyond criticism to advocate for specific ways to address the abuses of the past and present; specifically he calls for democratic government, debt reexamination, modernized infrastructure, free market economics, and free trade to promote development. ==Life== Ayittey holds a B.Sc. in Economics from the University of Ghana, Legon, an M.A. from the University of Western Ontario in Canada, and a Ph.D. from the University of Manitoba. He has taught at Wayne State College and Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania. He held a National Fellowship at the Hoover Institution in 1988–89, and then joined The Heritage Foundation as a Bradley Resident Scholar.〔 He founded The Free Africa Foundation in 1993, to serve as a catalyst for reform in Africa.〔(The Free Africa Foundation )〕 In 2008 Dr. Ayittey was listed by ''Foreign Policy'' as one of the "Top 100 Public Intellectuals" who "are shaping the tenor of our time".〔(Top 100 Public Intellectuals ), ''Foreign Policy''〕 He lives in Lorton, Virginia.
