Abstract

La 4ème de couverture indique : "Quand et où le capitalisme est-il né? Est-il le fruit de circonstances favorables ou a-t-il émergé grâce à la volonté des hommes? Relève-t-il de la marche inéluctable vers un progrés inévitable? Est-il forcément lié à l'Occident et à la démocratie ou peut-il s'épanouir ailleurs et sous d'autres formes? De l'Angleterre du XVIIe siècle à la Chine du XXIe siècle, Joyce Appleby retrace, loin des idées reçues et des querelles idéologiques, l'histoire de ce modèle devenu le fondement de nos sociétés modernes, source de changements et de renouvellements permanents, parfois restreints et prévisibles, parfois profonds et incontrôlés. Elle s'attache à démontrer que le capitalisme est avant tout un phénomène culturel quand les économistes, avec leurs modèles mathématiques, l'entourent de l'aura mystique d'un mécanisme autonome. Il nous serait donc possible de modeler ce formidable système de production de richesse pour qu'il soit au service des hommes et non au service de l'argent."

Abstract

During the late eighteenth century, innovations in Europe triggered the Industrial Revolution and the sustained economic progress that spread across the globe. While much has been made of the details of the Industrial Revolution, what remains a mystery is why it took place at all. Why did this revolution begin in the West and not elsewhere, and why did it continue, leading to today's unprecedented prosperity? In this groundbreaking book, celebrated economic historian Joel Mokyr argues that a culture of growth specific to early modern Europe and the European Enlightenment laid the foundations for the scientific advances and pioneering inventions that would instigate explosive technological and economic development. Bringing together economics, the history of science and technology, and models of cultural evolution, Mokyr demonstrates that culture--the beliefs, values, and preferences in society that are capable of changing behavior--was a deciding factor in societal transformations.
