Brenner continues: But if we look at countries such as England and the Netherlands as far back as 1600 to 1870 were already in a dynamic growth pattern distinct from the general pattern of the rest of Europe described above

[Network for a New Political Economy @N2PE_Network]

From Robert Brenner in the talk:
What @delong has done is give us a history of the "long 20th century" (1870-2000) defined by the triumph of #technology over population growth; the creation of a world with enough to go around & yet a failure to actually deliver enough to everyone

From @delong in the talk:
Since 1870, the #Economic pie has been big enough for everyone to have "enough," but we've still not actually accomplished everyone getting "enough." Why?
