El problema de la minería infor­mal, plantea el economista, es de una complejidad y de una potencial amenaza que desconocerla impli­ca no poder luchar contra ella. Y asegura que PPK no conoce este tema a pro­fundidad.

Esteemed economist Hernando de Soto has endorsed presidential candidate Keiko Fujimori in Peru’s 2016 elections. Fujimori presented de Soto as a member of her technical team at a campaign rally at the Sol de Oro mine in Marcona, Ica.

Hernando de Soto, en esta entrevista, no solo habla de la minería artesanal e ilegal, sino que explica su intención de formalizar a los 15 millones de trabajadores informales que hay en el país. Estaría en el debate técnico del Cusco este 15 de mayo.

In The Mystery of Capital: Why Capitalism Triumphs in the West and Fails Everywhere Else (2000), Peruvian economist Hernando de Soto argued that the underlying cause of Third-World poverty is weak property rights. Citizens of poor countries can't securely develop plots of land or put them up as collateral because they don't have clear legal titles.

When Hernando de Soto, PhD, reached the podium in the opening lecture of the Building Good Economies conference, he placed an apple and his wallet on the podium.“This is my apple, but there is nothing in the apple that says it’s mine,” he said. “There’s nothing in the apple that says you can lease it or buy it, that you can sell it or mortgage it.

 

26 March 2016 Este artículo ha sido publicado con la colaboración de Techonomy. Hernando de Soto, el economista peruano y promotor de campañas contra la pobreza, calcula que cinco mil millones de personas viven sin contar con los registros adecuados.

Fue fascinante escuchar sus ideas sobre economía informal y el por qué coloca a los derechos de  negocios y de propiedad como uno de los temas más importantes que necesitan ser mejorados para reducir la pobreza y pelear contra el terrorismo.

In an interview to Mint in 2007, de Soto estimated this to be worth about $10 trillion the world over. The trick is, like he pointed out, to incentivize people in the informal economy to accept the new terms of guaranteed titling.
