This book brings together a number of previously published articles by Stanley L. Engerman and Kenneth L. Sokoloff. Its essays deal with differences in the rates of economic growth in Latin American and mainland North America, specifically the United States and Canada. It demonstrates how relative differences in growth over time are related to differences in the institutions that developed in different economies. This variation is driven by differences in major institutions - suffrage, education, tax policy, land and immigration policy, and banking and financial organizations. These factors, in turn, are all related to differences in endowments, climate and natural resources. Providing a comprehensive treatment of its topic, the essays have been revised to reflect new developments and research.

評分祖師爺的書,前一陣開會的時候總算是完整翻過一遍瞭。論證瞭美洲大陸內部的小分流,特彆是為何原本富庶的南美現在落後瞭。觀點非常精彩——他們的係列研究可謂是AJR(2001)的思想源頭之一吧?論證同樣詳盡。而因為Sokoloff在本書付梓時已經離世,本書是由對他的紀念文章開篇的……讀來不禁潸然淚下。
