Abstract
International development theory and practice tend to emphasize the importance of optimizing development inputs such as capital, infrastructure, and expertise. Equally important in the success of development is the mitigation of counter-development forces such as corruption, rent-seeking, terrorism and organized crime. This article presents a development model that incorporates those forces that impede development.
