具體描述

Since the end of World War II, economists have tried to figure out how poor countries in the tropics could attain standards of living approaching those of countries in Europe and North America. Attempted remedies have included providing foreign aid, investing in machines, fostering education, controlling population growth, and making aid loans as well as forgiving those loans on condition of reforms. None of these solutions has delivered as promised. The problem is not the failure of economics, William Easterly argues, but the failure to apply economic principles to practical policy work.<br /> <br /> In this book Easterly shows how these solutions all violate the basic principle of economics, that people--private individuals and businesses, government officials, even aid donors--respond to incentives. Easterly first discusses the importance of growth. He then analyzes the development solutions that have failed. Finally, he suggests alternative approaches to the problem. Written in an accessible, at times irreverent, style, Easterly’s book combines modern growth theory with anecdotes from his fieldwork for the World Bank.

就个人而言,读书的乐趣就是通过阅读与作者腾云架雾,穿越时空来到另一番天地,感受彼时彼景的温度,自己或欣喜,或悲悯。《经济增长的迷雾》即带我去非洲,又带我去北美;既然我感受到“美国建国之初的野蛮生长的暴力”,又让我感受到“我国古代四大发明却又让我们停留在冷兵...

原来微博上有文章说为什么中国人这么重视高考,是因为相信考上好大学就能找到好工作获得美好人生,所以我们心里一直是觉得基本是知识水平、受教育水平决定个人发展。但是文章里借用《经济增长的迷雾》这本书里的话,说教育其实对国家经济水平的促进作用像一个呼啦圈一样可有可...

很多农民往往会在财政补贴和努力耕种之间权衡,而不是像政策的美好愿景那样越补贴越努力,甚至于在北方的一些农村,需要村干部亲自蹲在田间地头没日没夜的监督,才能完成相应的农产品产量。农民在面对选择的时候往往是现实而短视的,也缺乏应有的格局,你会发现很多农户人家比...

国家的经济发展,对个人生活水平的提高、婴儿死亡率的降低、营养不良和饥饿的减少非常重要(第1篇)。 而投资建设水电站等宏观发展策略失败,原因是没能在微观层面对个人提供正确的激励(第2篇)。 对个人提供正确的激励很难,因为,第157页,收入差距并非由个人积累物质资本和...

作者在世行专门做欠发达国家的扶贫工作,见多识广,有不少经验之谈。按照作者的观点,没有合适的制度安排,无论投资,贷款,引进技术或是豁免债务,对后进国家的经济增长都无济于事。这一观察与德索托《资本的秘密》以及《伟大的中国工业革命》的结论是相通的。没有合适的制度...

In this book, Easterly analyzes the reasons why foreign aid to many third world countries has failed to produce sustainable growth. Can be critically understood by comparison to the works of Jeffry Sachs, Rodrik, Institutionalism economists.

He was amazing in using such layman terms to explain the ideas in economic development. This books gives a very brief and comprehensive view of topics in economic development. it helps me a lot with economic intuitions and also gives me a sense of reality on the ground.
