The Singularity of Western Innovation: The Language Nexus
This book highlights the contribution of language standardization to the economic rise of the West between 1600 and 1860. Previous studies have been unable to explain why during this period almost all
Steamships
The half century after 1815 witnessed the West's first applications of steam transport in warfare, with Asia the favorite testing groundwarfare . In 1827, the Karteria , a steam-powered sloop financed in London by private subscription, fired explosive shells that demolished an Ottoman «Ottoman Empire» wooden-hulled sailing flotilla. In 1841, the Nemesis , an iron-hulled paddlewheel frigate commissioned by the British East India Company, destroyed…

The Word and the Sword: How Techniques of Information and Violence Have Shaped Our World
Is Public Spending Determined by Voter Choice of Fiscal Capacity
Previous models of public spending fail to explain why high inflation rates are distributed non-randomly across countries. In the switching-regime specification proposed here, governments tend to resort to inflationary debt monetarization when the spending level chosen by voters exceeds actual revenue capacity. The voter-choice and fiscal-capacity models of earlier studies are special cases of this framework. Using cross country data for 1970, 19…

A Spatial Approach to Structural Change: The Making of the French Hexagon
Previous studies explain the extension of royal power in fifteenth-century France by the professionalization of military combat or by the commercialization of economic activity. Neither approach can account for the turnaround in Charles VII's fortunes between 1435 and 1445. Using Lösch's model of spatial competition to examine the determinants of state borders, we suggest that the key factor in the formation of the French hexagon was an innovatio…

Foreign Aid and the Theory of Alliances
ARE per-capita expenditures on foreign aid by different donor countries interrelated? In particular, do small countries tend to be free riders, exploiting the larger countries by spending relatively little themselves while deriving benefits from larger countries' expenditures? The participants in the 1960s debate over the allocation of defense expenditures among Western nations tended to assume that the answer to both questions was yes. Lumping f…

cline in the cuirrent account balance between 1964 and 1967, but 1 billion dollars more than the actual decline between 1963 and 1967. Moreover, our approach is consistent with the fact that United States exports have maintained a fairly steady rate of growth since 1964 in the face of rising prices and the diversion of resources to the public sector, while United States imports have grown at an even faster rate during this period. Thus, while the…
The War in Vietnam and the United States Balance of Payments
IT is generally recognized that the international monetary crises of late 1967 and early 1968 were precipitated by large, continuing deficits in the United States balance of payments. Underlying these deficits was a steady erosion of the United States surplus on current account, which fell from 8.5 billion dollars in 1964 to 4.8 billion dollars in 1967. Despite government programs restricting foreign investment by United States residents,1 theref…
