BESTSELLER DEL NEW YORK TIMES Y WALL STREET JOURNAL.

De dos ganadores del Premio Nobel de Ciencias Económicas 2024, "que han demostrado la importancia de las instituciones sociales para la prosperidad de un país".

Qué determina que un país sea rico o pobre? Cómo se explica que, en condiciones similares, en algunos países haya hambrunas y en otros no? Qué papel juega la política en estas cuestiones?

Que algunas naciones sean más prósperas que otras, se debe a cuestiones culturales?, a los efectos de la climatología?, a su ubicación geográfica? No, en absoluto.

Ninguna cuestión relativa a la prosperidad de un país está relacionada con estos factores, sino proviene de otro mucho más tangible: la política económica que dictaminan sus dirigentes.

Son los líderes de cada país, afirman los reconocidos profesores Daron Acemoglu y James A. Robinson en este libro, quienes determinan con sus políticas la prosperidad de su territorio, y así ha ocurrido en todos los períodos de la historia, como demuestran en este apasionante estudio.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


NEW YORK TIMES AND WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER

From two winners of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences, "who have demonstrated the importance of societal institutions for a country's prosperity.

Brilliant and engagingly written, Why Nations Fail answers the question that has stumped the experts for centuries: Why are some nations rich and others poor, divided by wealth and poverty, health and sickness, food and famine?

Is it culture, the weather, geography? Perhaps ignorance of what the right policies are?

Simply, no. None of these factors is either definitive or destiny. Otherwise, how to explain why Botswana has become one of the fastest growing countries in the world, while other African nations, such as Zimbabwe, the Congo, and Sierra Leone, are mired in poverty and violence?

Daron Acemoglu and James Robinson conclusively show that it is man-made political and economic institutions that underlie economic success (or lack of it). Korea, to take just one of their fascinating examples, is a remarkably homogeneous nation, yet the people of North Korea are among the poorest on earth while their brothers and sisters in South Korea are among the richest. The south forged a society that created incentives, rewarded innovation, and allowed everyone to participate in economic opportunities.


Why Nations Fail will change the way you look at--and understand--the world.
