Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Eine neue Sicht auf unsere Welt, unsere Geschichte und Zukunft - ein visionäres Buch!Warum sind einige Nationen reich und andere arm Wodurch entsteht die krasse Ungleichheit in unserer heutigen Welt Wie soll man der Ungleichheit begegnen Starökonom Daron Acemoglu und Harvard-Politologe James Robinson geben eine ebenso schlüssige wie eindrucksvolle Antwort auf diese grundlegenden Fragen. Anhand zahlreicher, faszinierender Fallbeispiele - von den Conquistadores über die Industrielle Revolution bis zum heutigen China, von Sierra Leone bis Kolumbien - zeigen sie, mit welcher Macht die Eliten mittels repressiver Institutionen sämtliche Regeln zu ihren Gunsten manipulieren - zum Schaden der vielen Einzelnen. Ein spannendes und faszinierendes Plädoyer dafür, dass Geschichte und Geographie kein Schicksal sind. Und ein überzeugendes Beispiel, dass die richtige Analyse der Vergangenheit neue Wege zum Verständnis unserer Gegenwart und neue Perspektiven für die Zukunft eröffnet. Ein provokatives, brillantes und einzigartiges Buch.Eine monumentale Studie, ( ) eine universell gültige Theorie der wirtschaftlichen Entwicklungsgeschichte.« Der SPIEGEL »Sie werden dieses Buch aus drei Gründen lieben: Es geht um das vielleicht größte Problem unserer heutigen Welt: die nationalen Einkommensunterschiede. Es ist voll faszinierender Geschichten und ebenso wie ich, werden Sie es in einem Zug verschlingen und danach immer wieder in die Hand nehmen.« Jared Diamond, Pulitzer Preisträger und Autor der Weltbestseller »Kollaps« und »Arm und Reich«»Acemoglu und Robinson - zwei der weltweit führenden Experten für Entwicklungspolitik - zeigen, warum weder Geographie, Lebensumstände oder Kultur erklären können, warum manche Nationen reich und manche arm sind, sondern dass die Institutionen und die Politik entscheidend sind.

In zwei Jahrhunderten werden unsere Ur-Ur-Ur-Urenkel gleichermaßen 'Warum Nationen scheitern' lesen.« George Akerlof, Nobelpreisträger für Wirtschaftswissenschaften»Warum Nationen scheitern ist ein phantastisches Buch. Acemoglu und Robinson gehen das wichtigste Problem der Sozialwissenschaften an - eine Frage, die führende Denker seit Jahrhunderten plagt . und liefern eine in ihrer Einfachheit und Wirkmächtigkeit brillante Antwort. Eine wunderbar lesbare Mischung aus Geschichte, Politikwissenschaft und Ökonomie, die unser Denken über ökonomische Entwicklungen verändern wird. Warum Nationen scheitern ist Pflichtlektüre.« Steven Levitt, Autor von »Freakonomics«»Ein fesselndes und höchst lesenswertes Buch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Brilliant and engagingly written, Why Nations Fail answers the question that has stumped the experts for centuries: Why are some nations rich and others poor, divided by wealth and poverty, health and sickness, food and famine Is it culture, the weather, geography Perhaps ignorance of what the right policies are Simply, no. None of these factors is either definitive or destiny. Otherwise, how to explain why Botswana has become one of the fastest growing countries in the world, while other African nations, such as Zimbabwe, the Congo, and Sierra Leone, are mired in poverty and violence Daron Acemoglu and James Robinson conclusively show that it is man-made political and economic institutions that underlie economic success (or lack of it). Korea, to take just one of their fascinating examples, is a remarkably homogeneous nation, yet the people of North Korea are among the poorest on earth while their brothers and sisters in South Korea are among the richest. The south forged a society that created incentives, rewarded innovation, and allowed everyone to participate in economic opportunities. The economic success thus spurred was sustained because the government became accountable and responsive to citizens and the great mass of people. Sadly, the people of the north have endured decades of famine, political repression, and very different economic institutions-with no end in sight. The differences between the Koreas is due to the politics that created these completely different institutional trajectories. Based on fifteen years of original research Acemoglu and Robinson marshall extraordinary historical evidence from the Roman Empire, the Mayan city-states, medieval Venice, the Soviet Union, Latin America, England, Europe, the United States, and Africa to build a new theory of political economy with great relevance for the big questions of today, including: - China has built an authoritarian growth machine. Will it continue to grow at such high speed and overwhelm the West - Are America's best days behind it Are we moving from a virtuous circle in which efforts by elites to aggrandize power are resisted to a vicious one that enriches and empowers a small minority - What is the most effective way to help move billions of people from the rut of poverty to prosperity More philanthropy from the wealthy nations of the West Or learning the hard-won lessons of Acemoglu and Robinson's breakthrough ideas on the interplay between inclusive political and economic institutions Why Nations Fail will change the way you look at-and understand-the world.Libri GmbH, Europaallee 1, 36244 Bad Hersfeld 544 pp. Englisch.
