具體描述

China has reemerged as a powerhouse in the global economy, reviving a classic question in economic history: why did sustained economic growth arise in Europe rather than in China?

Many favor cultural and environmental explanations of the nineteenth-century economic divergence between Europe and the rest of the world. This book, the product of over twenty years of research, takes a sharply different tack. It argues that political differences which crystallized well before 1800 were responsible both for China’s early and more recent prosperity and for Europe’s difficulties after the fall of the Roman Empire and during early industrialization.

Rosenthal and Wong show that relative prices matter to how economies evolve; institutions can have a large effect on relative prices; and the spatial scale of polities can affect the choices of institutions in the long run. Their historical perspective on institutional change has surprising implications for understanding modern transformations in China and Europe and for future expectations. It also yields insights in comparative economic history, essential to any larger social science account of modern world history.

見長書評……

去年五月在皮凱蒂的主頁找到的英文版,很有趣的交集。和《通往工業革命的漫長道路》一起讀的,有點相互補充的感覺。觀點不新,部分地方缺乏材料支撐,但論證邏輯的推演很仔細。這本書一度成瞭我的文獻索引,按照每章的參考文獻找文章讀。

日益無感於此類不可證不可知的問題。
