Since the end of World War II, economists have tried to figure out how poor countries in the tropics could attain standards of living approaching those of countries in Europe and North America. Attempted remedies have included providing foreign aid, investing in machines, fostering education, controlling population growth, and making aid loans as well as forgiving those loans on condition of reforms. None of these solutions has delivered as promised. The problem is not the failure of economics, William Easterly argues, but the failure to apply economic principles to practical policy work.<br /> <br /> In this book Easterly shows how these solutions all violate the basic principle of economics, that people--private individuals and businesses, government officials, even aid donors--respond to incentives. Easterly first discusses the importance of growth. He then analyzes the development solutions that have failed. Finally, he suggests alternative approaches to the problem. Written in an accessible, at times irreverent, style, Easterly’s book combines modern growth theory with anecdotes from his fieldwork for the World Bank.

按照凯恩斯的“自信”,政治学家、商人、芸芸众生其实都是某个已故经济学家的奴隶。同时,本特利也提醒世人,业余经济学家是非常危险的。两个截然相左的观点都揭示出经济思想的巨大力量,不过凯恩斯所说的是一种经济学帝国主义,而本利特则想表明,经济学给社会带来的后果有可...

作者说的很对,经济增长依靠多方便因子的综合作用,良好的政府,正确的激励还有运气,经济不发展只需要其中一条就可以造成毁灭性的打击,从这个角度可以解释为什么工业革命发生在英国,英国正好有多方面合适的条件,后续的扩展当然比第一个要容易一些,但也不是很容易,需要多...

Chap 3: Solow's Surprise: Investment is Not the Key to Growth. Chap 6: The loans that were, the growth that wasn't

He was amazing in using such layman terms to explain the ideas in economic development. This books gives a very brief and comprehensive view of topics in economic development. it helps me a lot with economic intuitions and also gives me a sense of reality on the ground.

In this book, Easterly analyzes the reasons why foreign aid to many third world countries has failed to produce sustainable growth. Can be critically understood by comparison to the works of Jeffry Sachs, Rodrik, Institutionalism economists.
