Геополитические условия формирования капиталистической системы
Submitted by Гость (not verified) on Tue, 10/13/2026 - 16:14There is a fairly popular hypothesis, defended by various researchers, according to which the geopolitical fragmentation of Europe in Modern times provoked numerous wars and thereby stimulated innovation potential. It is this competition that sets Europe apart from the Asian empires and has become a key factor in modernizing and shaping capitalism. J. Goldstone presented a fairly convincing critique of this hypothesis. In his opinion, on the one hand, military competition does not promote innovative development, and on the other, it was no less intense in Asia.
