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

An epic and convincing argument about why some nations prosper and others fail. A strong editor could have made this an even more remarkable book.

I'm disappointed. This is a retelling/reinterpretation of economic growth/stagnation with strong neoliberal mindset.

text Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power, Prosperity, and Poverty [Daron Acemoglu, James Robinson]

(DNF) Started reading Aug 3, 2012 (since I'm removing that from more information) I don't know what it is about this book, but I've been having a lot of trouble reading it. I don't know if it's me or the book. I might try to read it again later, but I'm on chapter 5 and it isn't really that interest...
