"The hour of capitalism's greatest triumph" writes Hernando de Soto, "is, in the eyes of four-fifths of humanity, its hour of crisis." In The Mystery of Capital , the world-famous Peruvian economist takes up the question that, more than any other, is central to one of the most crucial problems the world faces today: Why do some countries succeed at capitalism while others fail? In strong opposition to the popular view that success is determined by cultural differences, de Soto finds that it actually has everything to do with the legal structure of property and property rights. Every developed nation in the world at one time went through the transformation from predominantly informal, extralegal ownership to a formal, unified legal property system. In the West we've forgotten that creating this system is what also allowed people everywhere to leverage property into wealth. This persuasive book revolutionizes our understanding of capital and points the way to a major transformation of the world economy.
Hernando de Soto is President of the Institute for Liberty and Democracy (ILD), headquartered in Peru and regarded by The Economist as the second most important think-tank in the world. He was recently named one of the five leading Latin American innovators of the century by Time. As Personal Representative and Principal Advisor to the President of Peru, he initiated that country's economic and political reforms. His previous book, The Other Path: The Economic Answer to Terrorism, was a bestseller throughout Latin America as well as in Washington, D.C.

评分这本书拖拖拉拉读了一个多月。其实书写得挺好,文笔通畅清晰、观点鲜明、结构严谨。读得慢主要是因为我这阵子心思野了、再就是书中间的几章写得有点拖沓、枯燥、缺乏实证村料。 这本书早就买了放在书架上,当初只是因为书名,以为这是本在马克思的传统下继续演绎马克思主义观...
评分A clear explanation of the rise of the West and the Decline of the rest
评分corruption, ineffective property laws, dead capital罗嗦了半本书
评分的確振聾發聵 中國領導人應該人手一本
评分终于赶着在讨论前看完了
评分感觉全书都在强调我们要端正态度,要把extralegal 拉进我们的法律体系。可能我肤浅,这大概不是一本方法论。
