BESTSELLER DEL NEW YORK TIMES Y WALL STREET JOURNAL.
De dos ganadores del Premio Nobel de Ciencias Económicas 2024, "que han demostrado la importancia de las instituciones sociales para la prosperidad de un país".
Qué determina que un país sea rico o pobre? Cómo se explica que, en condiciones similares, en algunos países haya hambrunas y en otros no? Qué papel juega la política en estas cuestiones?
Que algunas naciones sean más prósperas que otras, se debe a cuestiones culturales?, a los efectos de la climatología?, a su ubicación geográfica? No, en absoluto.
Ninguna cuestión relativa a la prosperidad de un país está relacionada con estos factores, sino proviene de otro mucho más tangible: la política económica que dictaminan sus dirigentes.
Son los líderes de cada país, afirman los reconocidos profesores Daron Acemoglu y James A. Robinson en este libro, quienes determinan con sus políticas la prosperidad de su territorio, y así ha ocurrido en todos los períodos de la historia, como demuestran en este apasionante estudio.
