Interview with World Bank President Robert Zoellick: Prospects for Economic Development, Part 1

In this one on one interview, Jim asks Zoellick why the empowerment of women is crucial to the overall wellbeing of these regions. Will the turmoil in the Arab World help or hinder women? And how can the World Bank - and the U.S. - ensure women's rights are protected?
