Porque las élites de poder no se presentan a las elecciones ni defienden un programa electoral.

Guyanese intellectual Walter Rodney emerged as one of the leading thinkers and activists of the anticolonial revolution. In 1980, shortly after founding of the Working People's Alliance in Guyana, the 38-year-old Rodney would be assassinated. In his magnum opus, Rodney incisively argues that grasping "the great divergence" between the West and the rest can only be explained as the exploitation of the latter by the former. This meticulously researched analysis of the repercussions of European colonialism in Africa remains an indispensable study for grasping global inequality today.

Ci spiega quali sono le sue istituzioni più importanti e come funzionano, i cambiamenti che ha portato a livello politico ed economico negli stati aderenti.

The Chinese government has more control over more wealth than any other government in world history. With the Communist Party controlling the "commanding heights" of the world's second-largest economy, China appears ideally structured to pursue economic statecraft, using economic resources to advance its foreign policy goals. Yet as this book shows, domestic complications frequently constrain Chinese leaders. They have responded with a distinctive approach to economic statecraft: orchestration.

Wettbewerb gilt im allgemeinen Verständnis als Grundvoraussetzung für wirtschaftliche Entwicklung. Die Europäische Union (EU) hat dies sogar in den vier Freiheiten des Binnenmarkts institutionalisiert. Auch in Deutschland gilt: je mehr Wettbewerb es gibt, desto mehr wirtschaftliche Dynamik bekommen wir. Doch kann man an einer solchen Denkweise tatsächlich noch festhalten? Was wäre, wenn wir dieses Modell von Grund auf neu denken würden? Ist es unserer Zeit nicht angemessen, wäre es nicht nötig, in die entgegengesetzte Richtung zu steuern?
