“In fact, I cannot find a single country that was a democracy in the strict sense we understand it today and then developed. On the contrary, historic evidence shows that democracy was a byproduct of the development process, not a cause of it. The same applies to corruption and respect for human rights. This fact is so stubborn that even countries that are rapidly transforming right in front of our eyes today, China and Vietnam, are not exemplars for the respect of human rights or democracy and both are struggling under the weight of corruption.”

where is this quote from?
