Brilliant movie-chart on Kiva loans from Core to Gap

HT to Thomas Frazel at Tulane.

I wrote about Kiva in Great Powers, naturally, because there my focus was on subnational and transnational actors (the trilogy, in Waltzian terms, went PNM = system, BFA = states, and GP = trans/subnational & individuals).

No surprise on the flows here: it's virtually all Core to Gap (wait for the "actor" credits at the end).

What I saw were four big flows:

1) US to Africa

2) US to Greater Middle East

3) US to Asia

4)Europe to Asia.

Fascinating stuff.

Meanwhile, I'm on the road giving a speech to a financial conference in Atlanta.
