Description

Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power, Prosperity and Poverty

Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robinson explore the factors that determine a nation's economic success, arguing that it is our man-made political and economic institutions that underlie economic success or lack thereof.

Through a comprehensive analysis of historical evidence from various countries, including Korea, the Roman Empire, and the Soviet Union, the authors build a new theory of political economy that sheds light on the big questions of today, such as the future of China's economy.
