Industrial Revolution and Capitalism Spirit:Two-Sector Growth Model

导出

摘要本文构造两部门(农业和工业)模型经济来模拟实际经济特征,并探讨现代经济增长的内在机制,由此解释与工业革命相关的问题。本文通过比较得出结论:促成工业革命的内在力量是追求资本积累的内在动力—资本主义精神,资本主义精神构成现代经济增长的内因。所有其他的因素,诸如制度、贸易、蒸汽机发明或者内生技术进步或人力资本积累都不过是为它服务的条件或工具。没有资本主义精神,经济只会维持相对平稳的Malthus状态;有了资本主义精神,经济就会不断突破原有均衡,实现增长。 This paper constructs a two-sector model to simulate real economy and study the mechanism of economic growth,explain some historical puzzles about industrial revolution.It is found that the inherent power to form the industrial revolution is the spirit of capitalism.The economy will stay at the Malthus trap without the spirit of capitalism,while the economy will always break the old equilibrium to another and keep on going ahead with the help of spirit of capitalism.The systems,trades,smoke-engine's invention,endogenous technology progress, or endogenous human capital accumulation,are no more than conditions or tools for it.
