Abstract

Seen in historical perspective the main economic issues of the present world (such as poverty, inequality, backwardness) appear in a somewhat different light than in many current discussions. The achievements of the modern age, and in particular of the post- World War II period, are considered in the perspective of economic and demographic history, and in their relations with the contemporary systems of production and of international relations.
