Abstract

The significance of cultural factors in economic development is analyzed. Culture here refers to values, behaviors, and beliefs. Culture alone cannot explain development, but there are some factors that help us understand why some countries develop faster than others. The study makes use of the World Values Survey as a road map for analysis using cross-cultural comparisons. The analysis focuses on two key core values: trust and achievement. This is applied to two regions: East Asia (Japan and Korea) and Latin America (Mexico and Peru). The aim is to examine how aspects of culture help accelerate or impede development.

文化如何影响经济发展？跨国比较

分析了文化因素在经济发展中的意义。这里的文化指的是价值观、行为和信仰。文化本身并不能解释发展，但有些因素可以帮助我们理解为什么有些国家比其他国家发展得更快。本研究利用世界价值观调查作为路线图，通过跨文化比较进行分析。分析的重点是两个关键的核心价值观：信任和成就。这适用于两个地区：东亚（日本和韩国）和拉丁美洲（墨西哥和秘鲁）。目的是研究文化的各个方面是如何帮助加速或阻碍发展的。
