Failure of the supply for technology:
Model of technological invention
Why

the scientific revolution didn’t occur in China?
Results of the analysis


Слайд 3 What is the problem?







Why had China been so

What is the problem?Why had China been so far ahead of

far ahead of other civilizations before the XIV century?
Why

isn’t China now ahead of the rest of the world?

Слайд 4 Failure of the demand for technology

Failure of the demand for technology

Слайд 6 Failure of the supply-side of technology
How the technology

Failure of the supply-side of technologyHow the technology is discovered?China did

is discovered?





China did not shift from experience-based to experiment-based


Слайд 7 Model of technical invention
Better technology ≈ higher productivity
Supply

Model of technical inventionBetter technology ≈ higher productivitySupply of technology comes

of technology comes from inventive activity
“Trial and Error”:


Implications:
Trials ↑↑

P(better technology)
P(better technology) ↑↓ level
of existing technology
Scientific knowledge ↑↑ P(better
technology)


Слайд 8 Experience-based vs Experiment-based
Exponential growth of population: 1400 -

Experience-based vs Experiment-basedExponential growth of population: 1400 - …DMR → P


DMR → P (great inventions)↓
Europe – scientific revolution →experiment-based

method dominates

China began losing
ground to Europe only
after the scientific revolution
in Europe




Слайд 9 Why the scientific revolution didn’t occur in China?
“Bureaucratic

Why the scientific revolution didn’t occur in China?“Bureaucratic system” inhibited the
