The book &#8220;The Causes of Portuguese Backwardness&#8221; (D. Quixote, 2023) is aimed at those who wish to understand how this happened and the reasons behind our fate. Why is Portugal today a wealthy country on a global scale, yet poor within the European context? What are the causes and historical background of our backwardness? How did we get here, and what can be done to improve our situation? These are the questions the book seeks to answer.<\/p>\n<p>Nuno Palma (brief bio):<br \/>\nFull Professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Manchester and Director of the Arthur Lewis Lab for Comparative Development at the same university.
