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.

可讀性還挺強的,不過大概也可以歸納到“中西對比”一類的套路裏?結論就是要“放寬曆史的視野”:大分流始於更早的曆史時期的設定(尤其是政治層麵的差異),而不是顯見的19世紀。

加州学派与“大分流” 对中西方生产方式和经济发展的差异性研究长期充斥着“宿命论”的观点——无论是文化上,还是制度上。似乎中国有着先天性的不足:中国文化先天上不热爱私有,中国社会先天上抵制契约精神。当然这种基于“西方中心论”的解释在上个世纪就受到了普遍的质疑与...
