State, Economy and the Great Divergence provides a new analysis of what has become the central debate in global economic history: the 'great divergence' between European and Asian growth. Focusing on early modern China and Western Europe, in particular Great Britain, this book offers a new level of detail on comparative state formation that has wide-reaching implications for European, Eurasian and global history.
Beginning with an overview of the historiography, Peer Vries goes on to extend and develop the debate, critically engaging with the huge volume of literature published on the topic to date. Incorporating recent insights, he offers a compelling alternative to the claims to East-West equivalence, or Asian superiority, which have come to dominate discourse surrounding this issue.
This is a vital update to a key issue in global economic history and, as such, is essential reading for students and scholars interested in keeping up to speed with the on-going debates.

Описание: In 1950 the British government accorded diplomatic recognition to the newly founded People’s Republic of China. But it took 22 years for Britain to establish full diplomatic relations with China. How far was Britain’s China policy a failure until 1972? This book argues that Britain and China were involved in the ‘everyday Cold War’, or a continuous process of contestation and cooperation that allowed them to ‘normalize’ their confrontation in the absence of full diplomatic relations. From Vietnam and Taiwan to the mainland and Hong Kong, China’s ‘everyday Cold War’ against Britain was marked by diplomatic ritual, propaganda rhetoric and symbolic gestures. Rather than pursuing a failed policy of ‘appeasement’, British decision-makers and diplomats regarded engagement or negotiation with China as the best way of fighting the ‘everyday Cold War’. Based on extensive British and Chinese archival sources, this book examines not only the high politics of Anglo-Chinese relations, but also how the British diplomats experienced the Cold War at the local level.
