The Wealth and Poverty of Nations ISBN 0 393 04017 8 , published in 1998 with an epilogue added to the 1999 paperback edition , is a book by David Landes , currently Emeritus Professor of Economics and former Coolidge Professor of History at Harvard University . In it, Landes explains the European Miracle , or why European societies experienced a period of explosive growth when the rest of the world did not. In doing so, he revives, at least in part, several theories he believes have been unfairly discarded by academics over the last 40 years. Among them The cultural thesis or Protestant work ethic of Max Weber The Hydraulic empire hydraulic thesis or Oriental Despotism thesis of Karl A. Wittfogel The climate thesis that posits that tropical climes are, ceteris paribus , poor candidates for development. Many of the theories of Adam Smith , whose Wealth of Nations is borrowed from for the title. But this does not necessarily mean a doctrinaire neoclassical economics neoclassicism , as Landes notes that comparative advantage can change over time, and also that developed countries, contrary to neoclassical theory, typically developed in an environment of protectionism against foreign trade. He also spends a good deal of time in the effort to debunk claims that this miracle did not happen, was not significant, or was financed by European colonialism. In short, he argues that the vast economic growth of Industrial Revolution was no accident that several qualities of Europe its climate, political competition, attitude towards science and religion, etc and especially certain countries in Europe firstly England , but also to an extent the Netherlands , with other countries left to copy ... in Europe though he deals with the later Asian miracle in Wealth and Poverty must of necessity be a Eurocentric ... http econ161.berkeley.edu Econ Articles Reviews landes.html anchor2077092 DEFAULTSORT Wealth and Poverty of Nations, The Category Books about economic history Category 1998 books es La riqueza ... more details

Soddy s economic writings were largely ignored in his time, but would later be applied to the development of ecological economics in the late 20th century. ref http www.nytimes.com 2009 04 12 opinion 12zencey.html? r 1&ref opinion Eric Zencey, Mr. Soddy s Ecological Economy , The New York Times , Opinion Section, April 12, 2009. ref Real wealth and virtual wealth In his 1926 book Wealth, Virtual Wealth and Debt The Solution of the Economic Paradox a book that presaged the market crash of 1929 Soddy pointed out the fundamental difference between real wealth buildings, machinery, oil, pigs and virtual wealth, in the form of money and debt. Soddy wrote that real wealth was subject to the inescapable entropy law of thermodynamics and would rot, rust, or wear out with age, while money and debt as accounting devices invented by humans were subject only to the laws of mathematics.
