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.

讀後感

評分

《国家为什么会失败》英文版于2012年3月出版,立刻引起广泛关注,被认为是政治经济学领域的一本重要著作。这自然与两位作者的声名有直接关系。两位作者,一位是麻省理工学院的经济学教授德隆·阿西莫格鲁,另一位则是哈佛大学政府学教授詹姆斯·罗宾逊。两人都任教于名校,虽...

不敢说是书评,笔记已经记完了,这篇就算是我的读后感吧。网上捧此书的较多,也有不少批评意见。我想这可能是源于读者对此书的定位不同所致,对我而言:这是一本知识普及书,而非学术书藉,因为它即既缺乏学术性的创新又缺乏学界应有的严谨,但是倘若把它当作知识普及书,则可...  

評分

第一本完整阅读的非教材英语书,前后读了一年多,从美国到北京再到香港。更多的是长跑般的耐力考验。 或许是作者的教授身份,虽然是非教材,从整体结构上却显示出了极强的英美教材的特点,开头结尾对全书进行总结,前后关系也以第几章作为标注,引用也很清晰。作为电子版,所...

围绕本书主旨的争论其实至少早在英文原版成书前十年就开始了。正如很多评论都提到的,本书两位作者与长期合作伙伴 Simon Johnson (合称 AJR)2001年发表论文[1]以计量手段论证:制度是经济绩效的根本性决定因素,而纬度、气候、资源等则影响甚微。这就直接否定了认为地理等因...

掙紮瞭很久,還是給4星吧。本書的好處在於知識範圍夠廣,總有一款是你不知道的,另外各種hammer一個簡化瞭的核心理念,讓你可以記憶深刻。缺點則是一切問題講得都不夠深入、不夠細緻,另外新意不多。如果不是這樣的大傢所著,應該就是一部普通的作品吧。

Disappointed because the authors mention inclusive vs. extractive institutions so many times without explaining exactly what they are like. God lives in details!

寫總結性專著的反麵典型。想通俗結果寫得羅嗦+無說服力,白瞎瞭結論背後那麼多牛逼的論文。看在觀點好和背後的論文牛逼,勉強給個4星。
