Political Economic Digest #35 On Poverty

Welcome to the thirty fifth issue of Political Economic Digest Series.

In the last issue of Political Economic Digest Series we had readings on Trade and Growth which is a chapter from the book International Trade Free, Fair and Open by Patrick Love and Ralph Lattimore.

This issue will cover extracts from the book Why Nations Fail by Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robinson.

The first extract Understanding Prosperity and Poverty talks about how some countries developed while some stayed poor.

The second extract Why Nations Fail today talks about how Robert Mugabe all by himself destroyed the economy of Zimbabwe.

Read the uploaded file.

We hope you enjoy the reading.
