10 Reasons Countries Fall Apart
States don't fail overnight. The seeds of of their destruction are sown deep within their political institutions.
BY DARON ACEMOGLU, JAMES A. ROBINSON | JULY/AUGUST 2012
"Most countries that fall apart, however, do so not with a bang but with a whimper. They fail not in an explosion of war and violence but by being utterly unable to take advantage of their society's huge potential for growth, condemning their citizens to a lifetime of poverty. This type of slow, grinding failure leaves many countries in sub-Saharan Africa, Asia, and Latin America with living standards far, far below those in the West."
