Abstract

This paper presents a pull–push theory of industrial revolutions. Generalizing from the first industrial revolution in England and the second industrial revolution in the United States, it points to the presence of three necessary conditions, namely (i) the existence of a trigger event which creates (ii) new market opportunities (pull) as well as (iii) new process technologies (push). The result is a novel approach to the underlying cause(s) of industrial revolutions, one that is consistent with both material and non-material views in the literature, as well as with demand-shock and supply-shock views. Furthermore, it is consistent with previous accounts of the 19th-century rise of managerial capitalism. Lastly, it provides a set of necessary conditions for what constitutes an industrial revolution.

工业革命的拉动-推动理论
本文提出了工业革命的拉动-推动理论。它从英国的第一次工业革命和美国的第二次工业革命中归纳出三个必要条件,即(i) 触发事件的存在,该事件创造了(ii) 新的市场机会(拉动)和(iii) 新的工艺技术(推动)。这一研究结果为工业革命的根本原因提供了一种新方法,它与文献中的物质和非物质观点以及需求冲击和供给冲击观点相一致。此外,它还与以往关于 19 世纪管理资本主义兴起的论述相一致。最后,它为工业革命的构成提供了一系列必要条件。

期刊介绍: International Advances in Economic Research (IAER) was established to promote the dissemination of economic and financial research within the international community. Founded in 1995 by the International Atlantic Economic Society, a need was identified to provide the latest research on today''s economic policies and tomorrow''s economic and financial conditions. Economists can no longer be concerned with professional developments only in their home country. Research by scholars in one country can easily have implications for other countries, yet often vital results are not shared. Economic restructuring in a shrinking world demands close analysis and careful interpretation. In IAER, authors from around the globe look at these issues, coming together in the cross-fertilization of multinational ideas. The journal provides economists, financial specialists, and scholars in related disciplines with much-needed opportunities to share their insights with worldwide colleagues. Policy-oriented, empirical, and theoretical research papers in all economic and financial areas are welcome, without regard to methodological preferences or school of thought. All manuscripts are submitted to a double-blind, peer review process. In addition to formal publication of full-length articles, IAER provides an opportunity for less formal communication through its Research Notes section. A small point may not be worthy of a full-length, formal paper but is important enough to warrant dissemination to other researchers. Research in progress may be of interest to other scholars in the field. A research approach ending in negative results needs to be shared to save others similar pitfalls. Research Notes has been established to facilitate this form of communication. The section provides a means by which short manuscripts of less than 200 words can quickly appear in IAER. The review process for these shorter manu scripts is usually completed within 30 days. Officially cited as: Int Adv Econ Res
