About the book
Productive societies redistribute prosperity; unproductive ones redistribute poverty.
We live in an age of extraordinary wealth, yet the foundations of our prosperity are eroding. Political short-termism, misguided activism, and bad incentives can undo decades of progress in just a few years. History is full of once-rich nations that slipped into poverty.
In his twelfth book, acclaimed author and consultant Luca Dellanna offers both a warning and a roadmap. Drawing on vivid examples from around the world, he explains why nations grow prosperous, why they decline, and how citizens can recognize and prevent the policies that lead to decay.
You’ll learn:
- The economic and cultural mistakes that turn abundance into scarcity
- How to spot dangerous trends before they reach a breaking point
- Practical principles to make societies wealthier, freer, and more resilient
Clear, concise, and actionable, Poverty and Prosperity equips you to engage in smarter political conversations, advocate for better policies, and help build a future where prosperity lasts.
