近代早期西班牙和葡萄牙商业经济的兴起与衰弱

On the Rise and Decline of Spain and Portugal's Commercial Economy in the Early Modern Times

近代早期,西班牙和葡萄牙短暂而辉煌的扩张如昙花一现,个中原因纷繁复杂,难以条分缕析,但无疑可从其商业经济的兴衰历程中探得某些根源。西班牙和葡萄牙的商业经济扩张是封建主义联合资本主义的扩张,其性质属于"垄断性"商业经济和国家重商主义商业经济,工业基础脆弱,这在某种程度上决定了它们扩张的短暂性。

In the early modern times, the short-lived and splendent expansion of Spain and Portugal like a flash in the pan. It＇s very difficult to analyze the reasons for their complex. But we can find some roots from the rise and decline course of the Spain and Portugal＇s commercial economy. The expansion of the Spain and Portugal＇s commercial economy is the expansion of feudalism combined capitalism. Its character belongs to monopolized commercial economy and national mercantile system commercial economy. And its industrial foundation is very fragile. This decided their expansion＇s brevity.
