The European Miracle: Environments, Economies and Geopolitics in the History of Europe and Asia Paperback - 2003

by Eric Jones


From the publisher

Why did modern states and economies develop first in the peripheral and late-coming culture of Europe? This historical puzzle looms behind every study of industrialization and economic development. In his analytical and comparative work Eric Jones sees the economic condition forming where natural environments and political systems meet: Europe's economic rise is explained as a favored interaction between them, contrasting with the frustrating pattern of their interplay in the Ottoman empire, India and China. A new preface and afterword have been added for the third edition. Previous Edition Hb (1987): 0-521-33449-7 Previous Edition Pb (1987): 0-521-33670-8

First line

EUROPE did not spend the gifts of its environment 'as rapidly as it got them in a mere insensate multiplication of the common life'.
