Review

"'You will have three reasons to love this book. It's about national income differences within the modern world, perhaps the biggest problem facing the world today. It's peppered with fascinating stories that will make you a spellbinder at cocktail parties - such as why Botswana is prospering and Sierra Leone isn't. And it's a great read. Like me, you may succumb to reading it in one go, and then you may come back to it again and again.'

(Jared Diamond, Pulitzer-prize-winning author of bestselling books including 'Guns, Germs, and Steel' and 'Collapse')"

Product Description

This is a provocative new theory of political economy explaining why the world is divided into nations with wildly differing levels of prosperity. Why are some nations more prosperous than others? "Why Nations Fail" sets out to answer this question, with a compelling and elegantly argued new theory: that it is not down to climate, geography or culture, but because of institutions. Drawing on an extraordinary range of contemporary and historical examples, from ancient Rome through the Tudors to modern-day China, leading academics Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robinson show that to invest and prosper, people need to know that if they work hard, they can make money and actually keep it - and this means sound institutions that allow virtuous circles of innovation, expansion and peace. Based on fifteen years of research, and answering the competing arguments of authors ranging from Max Weber to Jeffrey Sachs and Jared Diamond, Acemoglu and Robinson step boldly into the territory of Francis Fukuyama and Ian Morris. They blend economics, politics, history and current affairs to provide a new, powerful and persuasive way of understanding wealth and poverty. They offer a pragmatic basis for the hope that at 'critical junctures' in history, those mired in poverty can be placed on the path to prosperity - with important consequences for our views on everything from the role of aid to the future of China.

一直到最近兩位作者戴倫.艾塞默魯、詹姆斯.羅賓森的新書《自由的窄廊》出了,才忽然想起之前買的這本《國家為什麼會失敗》還沒看。這本推薦的人很多,批評的當然也不少。這是一個很廣很大,爭議性高的題目,因為導致這個結果的變數太多,其實很難歸納出一套完整的論述去說明...

若非相关专业研究,这本书首先不推荐读全本,看下关键章节的论断性语句强化记忆即可,其余皆是作者用于论证其观点的例子。当然,本书的精髓就在于这些纵横穿插古今中外,汪洋恣肆滚滚而来的经典实例,涉及到大量非英语名词,看起来略吃力,故作如是观。 作者开头以美国和墨西...

知道这本书是在一次经济法研讨课上,出于好奇泛泛试读了一遍。全书论据庞杂繁复,如果仔细推敲不一定都站得住脚。但也正是由于作者的旁征博引,书中闪光之点频现。假如我是一位生活在作者国度亦或接受英美文化教育的读者,我想这本书带来的冲击力的的确确让人无力反驳又感受到...

讲非洲的部分觉得写得很好,有不少启发,但是就唯一稍微熟悉一点的中国与日本的情况来说,还是觉得也许过于简单化——中国弱日本强,岂是明治维新成功这么轻飘飘的原因能够解释的

学术书腔调畅销政策书底子,宽大视野必须忽略细节,案例繁杂,大气但粗糙。制度是一系列自变量在复杂历史机制和偶然性中所形成的均衡,其本身就为一因变量、或实为国家肌体本身,当作近乎唯一自变量解释当代盛衰是简便但肤浅/循环自证。除黑死病外,光荣革命之类似应当成制度内生突变而非偶然性和突发点。包容/攫取定义不清:包容的重点为司法保护私产、市场经济和政治权力制衡,政治参与是次要;攫取要点则在以政治权力阻止他人进入自己在抽税/租的领域,直接强征经济利益为次要。故中国、智利、印度等混合制度即是包容与攫取的中间阶段,组合如何、如何发展则当具体分析,不应死抱分类。未能圆满解决国家权力集中化同维持包容性制度的矛盾和聚合—欧美毕竟经历特殊历史进程方形成合适配比—却因分类僵化而提出政治改革一路的政策建议,大胆而难为。
