摘要: The 20 century offered opportunities for rapid natural resource-based growth that Latin America systematically missed.

America’s underperformance, its particularly virulent strain of dependency, are in substantial measure due to impediments technological adoption innovation arising from weak national “learning” capacity, perverse incentives protectionist era.
