This book focuses on the importance of ideological and institutional factors in the rapid development of the British economy during the years between the Glorious Revolution and the Crystal Palace Exhibition. Joel Mokyr shows that we cannot understand the Industrial Revolution without recognizing the importance of the intellectual sea changes of Britain’s Age of Enlightenment. In a vigorous discussion, Mokyr goes beyond the standard explanations that creditgeographical factors, the role of markets, politics, and society to show that the beginnings of modern economic growth in Britain depended a great deal on what key players knew and believed, and how those beliefs affected their economic behavior. He argues that Britain led the rest of Europe into the Industrial Revolution because it was there that the optimal intersection of ideas, culture, institutions, and technology existed to make rapid economic growth achievable. His wide-ranging evidence covers sectors of the British economy often neglected, such as the service industries.
2014-03-24 又是一本非常好看的书,主要是说启蒙主义带来的ideology的革命怎么影响到工业革命。观点不新,很多人说过,但是这本书基于相对扎实可信的论证,读起来收益颇多。2020-03-25 仔细读了前5章。细节非常丰富,真是narrative堆起来的一本书。先解释为什么enlightenment重要,又说为什么英国能领先。段间写作结构比较清晰的,但是章与章之间的逻辑关系我还没完全弄清楚。另外,还是需要读者知道一些工业革命的基本历史。
