Study Notes
Neomercantilism and Economic Nationalism in the Industrial Revolution
- Neomercantilism gained momentum during the Industrial Revolution as a doctrine that viewed industrialization as essential for a state's military power, security, and economic self-sufficiency.
- Alexander Hamilton and Friedrich List were prominent neomercantilist thinkers who believed in maintaining a positive balance of trade and increasing industrial exports for long-term advantages.
- Hamilton's 1791 Report on the Subject of Manufactures is considered the intellectual origins of modern economic nationalism and the classic defense of economic protectionism.
- Hamilton believed that the US government intervention was necessary to promote industrialization, as Britain discouraged manufacturing in its colonies.
- List emphasized the importance of manufacturing for a state's economic development and believed that protection for infant industries was necessary for Germany and the US to catch up with Britain.
- List also highlighted the importance of national unity to impose external trade barriers, launch national projects, and develop human capital.
- Although List was critical of Adam Smith's brand of liberalism, he was influenced by Smith's arguments for free trade and believed that protection should be targeted, not excessive, and temporary.
- IPE scholars have different interpretations of List's writings, with some describing him as an economic nationalist and neomercantilist, while others argue that he was an economic nationalist, but not a neomercantilist.
- A state is a sovereign, territorial political unit, and a nation is a group of people who feel tied by a common ethnicity, culture, language, history, or religion.
- Economic nationalism is not equivalent to statism, and economic nationalism and neomercantilism can overlap in a nation-state.
- List wrote that liberal arguments for free trade did not take into account the influence of war on the necessity for a protective system.
- List believed that after infant industries were "raised by artificial measure," freedom of trade could then "operate naturally."
Η Νεομερκαντιλιστική Σκέψη του Χάμιλτον και του Λιστ κατά την Επανάσταση της Βιομηχανίας
- Το μερκαντιλισμός ήταν δόγμα προβιομηχανικής εποχής.
- Η Επανάσταση της Βιομηχανίας έδωσε νέα ώθηση στους νεομερκαντιλιστές που θεωρούσαν τη βιομηχανοποίηση αναγκαία για τη στρατιωτική δύναμη, την ασφάλεια και την οικονομική αυτάρκεια του κράτους.
- Ο Χάμιλτον και ο Λιστ ήταν οι κυριότεροι σκέπτες της εποχής που υποστήριζαν τη θετική εμπορική ισορροπία και την αύξηση των εξαγωγών βιομηχανικών προϊόντων.
- Ο Χάμιλτον υποστήριζε ότι η ανεξαρτησία και η ασφάλεια της χώρας συνδέονται με την ευημερία των βιομηχανικών της κλάδων, και πρότεινε κρατική παρέμβαση και προστ
