Gebraucht - Sehr gut Ungelesenes, vollständiges Exemplar; in sehr gutem Zustand, leichte Lagerspuren, als Mängelexemplar gekennzeichnet -Fortschritt - Eine 1000-jährige IllusionDie verbesserte Landwirtschaft im Mittelalter, später die industrielle Revolution und heute die künstliche Intelligenz - im Laufe der Geschichte wurde der technologische Wandel stets als Haupttriebkraft für das Gemeinwohl angesehen. Doch die Fortschrittsgewinne fallen nur wenigen zu, und die Technologie ist von den Zielen und Obsessionen der Mächtigen geprägt. Sie verhilft ihnen zu noch mehr Reichtum, sozialem Ansehen und Einfluss.Die zwei MIT-Professoren und Bestsellerautoren Daron Acemoglu (»Warum Nationen scheitern«) und Simon Johnson stellen das konventionelle Verständnis von technologischem Fortschritt auf den Kopf, Volkswirtschaften funktionieren anders als wir gemeinhin denken. Sie enthüllen, wer die Fortschrittsgewinner und wer die -verlierer sind, in einem Werk, das unseren Blick auf die Welt und unser Verständnis von ihr grundlegend verändert. Wie kann echter Fortschritt, wie kann gerechtere Innovation gelingen Acemoglu und Johnson haben die Antworten.»Macht und Fortschritt« ist ausgezeichnet mit dem A.SK Social Science Award 2023. Daron Acemoglu und Simon Johnson sind Träger des Wirtschaftsnobelpreises 2024. »Eine Synthese aus Geschichte und Analyse, verbunden mit konkreten Ideen, wie die Zukunft verbessert werden kann.« Jaron Lanier»Dieses wichtige Buch ist ein notwendiges Gegenmittel gegen die giftige Rhetorik der technologischen Unvermeidbarkeit.« Shoshana Zuboff»Pflichtlektüre für alle, denen das Schicksal der Demokratie im digitalen Zeitalter am Herzen liegt.« Michael J.

ROBINSON Shortlisted for the Financial Times Business Book of the Year AwardWhy 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.

In den WarenkorbTaschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -From the authors of the international bestseller Why Nations Fail, a crucial new big-picture framework that answers the question of how liberty flourishes in some states but falls to authoritarianism or anarchy in others--and explains how it can continue to thrive despite new threats. In Why Nations Fail, Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robinson argued that countries rise and fall based not on culture, geography, or chance, but on the power of their institutions. In their new book, they build a new theory about liberty and how to achieve it, drawing a wealth of evidence from both current affairs and disparate threads of world history. Liberty is hardly the 'natural' order of things. In most places and at most times, the strong have dominated the weak and human freedom has been quashed by force or by customs and norms. Either states have been too weak to protect individuals from these threats, or states have been too strong for people to protect themselves from despotism. Liberty emerges only when a delicate and precarious balance is struck between state and society. There is a Western myth that political liberty is a durable construct, arrived at by a process of 'enlightenment.' This static view is a fantasy, the authors argue. In reality, the corridor to liberty is narrow and stays open only via a fundamental and incessant struggle between state and society: The authors look to the American Civil Rights Movement, Europe's early and recent history, the Zapotec civilization circa 500 BCE, and Lagos's efforts to uproot corruption and institute government accountability to illustrate what it takes to get and stay in the corridor. But they also examine Chinese imperial history, colonialism in the Pacific, India's caste system, Saudi Arabia's suffocating cage of norms, and the 'Paper Leviathan' of many Latin American and African nations to show how countries can drift away from it, and explain the feedback loops that make liberty harder to achieve. Today we are in the midst of a time of wrenching destabilization. We need liberty more than ever, and yet the corridor to liberty is becoming narrower and more treacherous. The danger on the horizon is not 'just' the loss of our political freedom, however grim that is in itself; it is also the disintegration of the prosperity and safety that critically depend on liberty. The opposite of the corridor of liberty is the road to ruin.Libri GmbH, Europaallee 1, 36244 Bad Hersfeld 556 pp. Englisch.

There is also a happy Western myth that where liberty exists, it's a steady state, arrived at by 'enlightenment'. But liberty emerges only when a delicate and incessant balance is struck between state and society - between elites and citizens. This struggle becomes self-reinforcing, inducing both state and society to develop a richer array of capacities, thus affecting the peacefulness of societies, the success of economies and how people experience their daily lives.Explaining this new framework through compelling stories from around the world, in history and from today - and through a single diagram on which the development of any state can be plotted - this masterpiece helps us understand the past and present, and analyse the future.'As enjoyable as it is thought-provoking' Jared Diamond.

Nogales (Arizona) y Nogales (Sonora) tienen la misma población, cultura y situación geográfica. ¿Por qué una es rica y otra pobre? ¿Por qué Botsuana es uno de los países africanos con mayor desarrollo y, en cambio, países vecinos como Zimbabue, Congo o Sierra Leona están sumidos en la más desesperante pobreza? ¿Por qué Corea del Norte es uno de los países más pobres del mundo y Corea del Sur uno de los más prósperos?Por qué fracasan los países responde a estas y otras cuestiones con una nueva y convincente teoría: la prosperidad no se debe al clima, a la geografía o a la cultura, sino a las políticas dictaminadas por las instituciones de cada país. Debido a ello, los países no conseguirán que sus economías crezcan hasta que no dispongan de instituciones gubernamentales que desarrollen políticas acertadas. Asimismo, los autores responden a las siguientes cuestiones: China está creciendo a un ritmo trepidante. ¿Hasta cuándo podrá seguir creciendo al mismo ritmo? ¿Acabará por aplastar al mundo occidental? ¿Hasta cuándo será Estados Unidos una potencia mundial? ¿Su sistema económico es apto para competir en las próximas décadas? ¿Cuál es el mejor método para sacar de la pobreza a millones de personas? ¿Realmente las ayudas de Occidente ayudan a erradicar las hambrunas?A través de una cuidada selección de ejemplos históricos y actuales (desde la antigua Roma pasando por los Tudor y llegando a la China moderna) los reconocidos profesores Daron Acemoglu y James A. Robinson harán que usted vea el mundo, y sus problemas, de un modo completamente distinto. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
