yeah it wasn’t so much “wrong” or even “objectionable” as like simple and dumb. It was as if (and probably was literally the case that) they took a bunch of their academic research, dumbed it down for a popular audience, but lost track of the dumbing down and went way overboard.
Yeah. Nations fail because they lack durable institutions. Said in different ways for 300 pages.
Truly revolutionary research contribution to our collective body of knowledge 🤙
omg don’t say “inclusive institutions,” I’ve just realised how triggering it still is for me 🤣
Way overboard? Bureaucracy constantly evolving 🤣
