The Mechanics of Modernity in Europe and East Asia: Institutional Origins of Social Change and StagnationRoutledge, 2004年8月2日 - 256 頁 Why, from the eighteenth century onwards, did some countries embark on a path of sustained economic growth, while others stagnated?

Taking a global view, Ringmar investigates the implications of his conclusion on issues facing the developing world today. |
