As a comparative economic history, it examines why Colombia has seen lower growth rates than countries with similar institutions, culture and colonial origins, such as Argentina in 1870-1914, Mexico in 1930-1980, and Chile from 1982 onwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile Colombia's history has shown relative macroeconomic stability, it has also shown a limited capacity for integrating into the world economy and embracing technological breakthroughs compared to the rest of the world, including steam, mass production and Information Technology. This volume thus moves away from the long-held view that institutional path dependence is the main determinant of differences in long-run economic growth across countries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ivan Luzardo-Luna\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030257541\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030257545\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave Pivot\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/18\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 154\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.63d","brand":"Ivan Luzardo-Luna","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48089058246911,"sku":"9783030257545","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5e1b79c9-9222-4def-aa39-9aa9204a82cf.jpg?v=1769107964","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/colombias-slow-economic-growth-ivan-luzardo-luna-9783030257545","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
