Sommario/riassunto |
|
We present a stylized real model of the Chinese economy with the objective of explaining two features: (1) domestic production is highly competitive in the sense that an accumulation of capital that raises the marginal product of labor elicits increases in employment and output rather than only in wages; and (2) even though the domestic saving rate is high, foreign direct investment is also substantial. We explain these features in terms of a conventional neoclassical growth model-with no monetary or nominal exchange rate policy-by including two aspects of the economy explicitly in the model: (1) low production wages are sustained by a large reserve army of rural labor which drives internal migration, and (2) domestic capital is distinct from importable capital and complementary with it in production. The results suggest that underlying real phenomena are important in explaining recent history; while nominal renmimbi appreciation may dampen price and wage increases, it would probably not change the real factors that have sustained rapid growth. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Étape la plus emblématique du Grand Tour que les élites européennes accomplissaient au XVIIIe siècle, le voyage en Italie ne se réduit pas à une expérience de jeunes nobles complétant leur éducation. En temps de paix comme à la faveur des guerres, des Français de tous âges ont traversé les Alpes ou pris la mer avec les buts les plus variés. Riches ou pauvres, guidés par des modèles qui canalisaient leurs attentes, ils ont contribué à transformer le visage d'une terre engagée dans le processus unitaire en inventant des capitales, comme Milan, et en parcourant les Alpes ou le Sud marqué par les restes antiques. Terre des arts, de la culture classique et du catholicisme, l'Italie des Lumières est alors devenue le «laboratoire» d'une connaissance plus systématique de la nature, des hommes et de l'organisation des sociétés. Mais tandis que l'encyclopédisme fit place au seuil du XIXe siècle à des savoirs plus spécialisés, nobles et marchands, artistes et gens de lettres renouèrent avec un regard simplificateur et stéréotypé et le voyageur du XVIIIe siècle se mua en un touriste pressé et |

conquérant. C'est pour mieux comprendre le passage de ces formes complexes du voyage vers le tourisme que la présente enquête s'est attachée à dépouiller les guides, récits et journaux de voyage laissés par les Français sur l'Italie entre 1750 et 1815. |
