“起飞准备”:浅析15～17世纪西北欧民族经济的转型

"Take-off Preparation" ——the Transference of Northwestern Europe's National Economy during the 15th～17th Centuries

中世纪西北欧经济曾一度被汉撒同盟、意大利商人银行家交替控制,然而在15-17世纪社会转型期间,西北欧民族国家不仅成功地摆脱意大利、汉撒同盟等外来民族的经济控制,实现了经济自主化,而且在反控制的过程中,其经济由先前的内敛型逐渐走向了向外扩张的道路。15～17世纪西北欧民族经济经历了一场意义深远的转型,这次转型为其资本主义经济的真正"起飞"———工业革命的到来奠定了雄厚的物质基础,创造了前所未有的前进动力。

The North-western Europe's economy in the Middle Ages used to be alternately controlled by Hansa and Italian commercial bankers, however, in the period of social transference during the 15th-17th centuries, the Northwestern European nations not only successfully cast off the economic control of foreign nations and won their economic independence but, in the anti-control process, also gradually shifted their inward economy to outward expansion. This significant transference prepared a solid material foundation and motive force for the real 'take-off' of their capitalist economy - the industrial revolution.
