Join CFA Society Austin for this Book Club meeting to discuss Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power, Prosperity, and Poverty , a New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller by Daron Acemoglue and James A. Robinson, two winners of the 2024 Nobel Prize in economic sciences.
Drawing on 15 years of original research, the authors conclusively show that it is our man-made political and economic institutions that underlie economic success (or the lack of it).
Chosen in honor of America’s 250th Anniversary, the book gives examples from various countries, including North and South Korea, the Roman Empire, the Mayan city-states, the Soviet Union, the United States, and Africa to build a new theory of political economy with great relevance for the big questions of today.
Meet up with other interested readers to exchange your ideas and engage in enlightening discussions.
