Acemoglu has argued that colonialism helped develop European economies: "Our hypothesis is that Atlantic trade—the
opening of the sea routes to the New World,
Africa, and Asia and the building of colonial
empires—contributed to the process of West
European growth between 1500 and 1850, not
only through direct economic effects, but also
indirectly by inducing fundamental institutional
change." https://scholar.harvard.edu/files/jrobinson/files/jr_AERAtla... Where has he argued the opposite? |
