Hernando de Soto is President of the Institute for Liberty and Democracy (ILD), headquartered in Lima, Peru. He was named one of the five leading Latin American innovators of the century by Time magazine in its May 1999 issue on "Leaders for the New Millennium." De Soto played an integral role in the modernization of Peru's economic and political system as President Alberto Fujimori's Personal Representative and Principal Adviser. His previous book, The Other Path, was a best seller throughout Latin America and the U.S. He and ILD are currently working on the practical implementation of the measures for bringing the poor into the economic mainstream introduced in The Mystery of Capital. He lives in Lima, Peru.
In this, his classic book on the informal economy of Peru and the reasons why poverty can be a breeding ground for terrorists, Hernando De Soto describes the forces that keep people dependent on underground economies: the bureaucratic barriers to legal property ownership and the lack of legal structures that recognize and encourage ownership of assets. It is exactly these forces, de Soto argues, that prevent houses, land, and machines from functioning as capital does in the West--as assets that can be leveraged to create more capital. Under the Fujimori government, de Soto's Institute for Liberty and Democracy wrote dozens of laws to promote property rights and bring people out of the informal economy and into the legitimate one. The result was not only an economic boon for Peru but also the defeat of the Shining Path, the terrorist movement and black-market force that was then threatening to take over the Peruvian government. In a new preface, de Soto relates his work to the present moment, making the connection between the Shining Path in the 1980's and the Taliban today.

評分除瞭地理學上知道秘魯漁場外,對於這個南美的偏遠狹長的國傢並沒有什麼瞭解,也沒聽說過他們齣過什麼有影響力的國度,直到看到瞭德·索托的書,書的內容不想多言,隻是談談個人感受。 《另一條道路》與《資本的秘密》這兩本書討論的都是同一類話題,背景也都是發展中國傢經濟...
評分 評分本書和作者另一本《資本的秘密》,共同講述的是在一個僵化的所有權製度下(秘魯),不占有正規産權的農村進城務工人員、貧民、小商販、民營企業傢,在侵犯國傢正規的僵化的所有權體製情況下,建立起非法居住區,非法商業圈、非法運輸綫路的過程及其為國傢民主建設、生産力發展...
評分1、重商主義(Mercantilism),無論是英文還是中文,都沒有清楚錶達其含義。這其實體現的是國傢的權力,對社會、商業、資源的控製,無論左派右派。而左右本身也是不夠清楚的概念。重商主義是比較符閤直覺的政策,而自由市場是比較反直覺的。 2、更閤適的視角是這四個:國傢權力...
