Global poverty, Paul Collier points out, is actually falling quite rapidly for about eighty percent of the world. The real crisis lies in a group of about 50 failing states, the bottom billion, whose problems defy traditional approaches to alleviating poverty. In The Bottom Billion, Collier contends that these fifty failed states pose the central challenge of the developing world in the twenty-first century. The book shines a much needed light on this group of small nations, largely unnoticed by the industrialized West, that are dropping further and further behind the majority of the world's people, often falling into an absolute decline in living standards. A struggle rages within each of these nation between reformers and corrupt leaders--and the corrupt are winning. Collier analyzes the causes of failure, pointing to a set of traps that snare these countries, including civil war, a dependence on the extraction and export of natural resources, and bad governance. Standard solutions do not work against these traps, he writes; aid is often ineffective, and globalization can actually make matters worse, driving development to more stable nations. What the bottom billion need, Collier argues, is a bold new plan supported by the Group of Eight industrialized nations. If failed states are ever to be helped, the G8 will have to adopt preferential trade policies, new laws against corruption, and new international charters, and even conduct carefully calibrated military interventions. As former director of research for the World Bank and current Director of the Center for the Study of African Economies at Oxford University, Paul Collier has spent a lifetime working to end global poverty. In The Bottom Billion, he offers real hope for solving one of the great humanitarian crises facing the world today.
Paul Collier是非洲研究的大牛 本书写的条理很清晰(4个trap限制了bottom billion countries的发展), 虽然略显死板,给出的政策建议也是略模糊(丰富贸易,加强国际合作,加强国际干预等),但受到很多美国贸易专家/政客的推崇。 我最爱的导师,前美国贸易谈判代表Schwab女士...

评分中国有句古话,“不患寡,患不均。”的确当不均出现时,人们内心的强烈不安情绪可能导致动乱。而目前的非洲与其他国家之间的差距就令人担忧。作者在这本书的开始就说,那些动荡因素会蔓延到其他国家,从而带来连带伤害。而这持续贫穷之后的原因是什么呢,又有什么解决方法呢,...

骗小孩的
评分我也不明白读这种书怎么能读得这么快乐,哈哈哈
评分不回头,不回头的走下去
评分偏见
评分威廉·伊斯特利点出本书的两处硬伤:1.在国家选择上的bias,并没有任何证据表明Collier选择的这些国家在今后四十年仍会处于发展停滞的状态,也未必会被困在这些陷阱中。2.相关性不代表因果性,Collier的统计分析并不能代替逻辑推理和分析。——很好地证明了国关不能依赖于经济学和统计方法的定量研究。
