Culture, Innovation, and Growth Dynamics

This book argues that ideas in the social realm are the context-bound products of distinct histories and cultures and thus cannot be co-opted across place and time. The book emphasizes that the dominant Western intellectual paradigm has not improved human society in either Western or non-Western parts of the world.

Aceasta carte sustine ca ideile din domeniul social sunt produse legate de context ale unor istorii si culturi distincte si, prin urmare, nu pot fi cooptate in spatiu si timp. Cartea subliniaza faptul ca paradigma intelectuala occidentala dominanta nu a imbunatatit societatea umana nici in partile occidentale, nici in cele non-occidentale ale lumii.
