The Narrow Corridor. States, societies and the fate of freedom
19.99 €
In their new book, the authors of the international bestseller Why Some Countries Are Rich and Others Are Poor explore how some countries develop and provide freedom to citizens, while others fall into despotism or lawlessness.
Freedom occurs when a delicate and permanent equilibrium is established between state and society, between elites and citizens. But how do they learn not only to compete but also to cooperate? How can we pass through the narrow corridor leading to freedom, sandwiched between despotism and anarchy? And why is this corridor so narrow? In answering such questions, D. Acemoglu and D.A. Robinson help us to understand the past and present, as well as to look to the future.
