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.

可读性还挺强的,不过大概也可以归纳到“中西对比”一类的套路里?结论就是要“放宽历史的视野”:大分流始于更早的历史时期的设定(尤其是政治层面的差异),而不是显见的19世纪。

Again the fit theory, also the target of Vries' 2015 book.

去年五月在皮凯蒂的主页找到的英文版,很有趣的交集。和《通往工业革命的漫长道路》一起读的,有点相互补充的感觉。观点不新,部分地方缺乏材料支撑,但论证逻辑的推演很仔细。这本书一度成了我的文献索引,按照每章的参考文献找文章读。

只看每个chapter的开头结尾,略去中间只抓结论,没办法精读真的来不及了……感觉还是王国斌一贯的主张,然后和彭慕兰原著套了一下,算是对彭著一个很好的补充……姑且算是为整个研究范式添砖加瓦了吧
