Addressing the questions of how economic growth came about in these four countries and why sustained economic growth was achieved only by the two latter economic powers - Great Britain and the United States, it clearly highlights the long-term economic impact of the individual economic systems each country had developed. This discussion draws on two important variables in economic systems: whether its primary activity is agriculture, commerce, or manufacturing, and whether its productive system expands or simply reproduces. From this interpretive framework, the book suggests that the existing literature has not yet paid sufficient attention to the enduring impact on a nation?s long-term economic performance of their differing economic systems - simple agricultural reproduction system (Spain), expansive commercial reinvestment system (the Netherlands), and expansive industrial reproduction system (Great Britain and the United States). The book also demonstrates why sustained economic growth was viable only within an expansive industrial reproduction system, and what conditions Great Britain and the United States had to fulfill to create such an economic system in their specific historical contexts. It concludes by reflecting on the policy implications of the findings on current discussions concerning economic development within the global economy. 606 $aEconomic history 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aEconomics 606 $aEconomic growth 606 $aHistory of Economic Thought/Methodology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W28000 606 $aPolitical Economy/Economic Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W46000 606 $aEconomic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010 606 $aEconomic Growth$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W44000 615 0$aEconomic history. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aEconomics. 615 0$aEconomic growth. 615 14$aHistory of Economic Thought/Methodology. 615 24$aPolitical Economy/Economic Systems. 615 24$aEconomic Policy. 615 24$aEconomic Growth. 676 $a330.1509 700 $aKim$b Tai-Yoo$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0950737 702 $aKim$b Daeryoon$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255030603321 996 $aThe Secrets of Hegemony$92149545 997 $aUNINA
