Hernando de Soto

Excelente discurso.

Advancing Liberty

Trecho: As Professor Friedman said in his remarks, the sorts of solutions that poor countries need are the kinds of things that developed countries did in the 19th Century, not the 21st Century. In other words, what occurred in the West in the 19th century is now occurring in developing countries. "Oliver Twist" has come to town. But Oliver Twist and his friends haven't yet been recognized by international financial institutions or by most bilateral programs from developed countries. And even worse than that, he hasn't really been recognized by most of the people in developing countries who think that street vendors are a problem, that illegal manufacturing creates faulty products. But the truth is, the industrial revolution has come in.

And so to us what is very important is that the more people are aware of the real conditions in developing countries, where there are 5 billion of the world's 6 billion population, the more politicians are going to find out that their biggest constituency for change are poor businessmen. And that is what will eventually make them move because that increases their legitimacy.

And we now know that these reforms are important to solve various of the world's problems. For example, my country, Peru, had for 10 years a president of Japanese origin. His name was Alberto Fujimori. The Fujimoris were one of 1 million families that came from Japan to Peru and to Brazil in the 1930's and 1940's.
