Indeed it can be summarized in one diagram: figure 1.1. Before 1800 income per person – the food, clothing, heat, light, housing, and furnishings available per head - varied across socie- ties and epochs. But there was no upward trend. A simple but powerful mechanism explained in this book, the Malthusian Trap, kept incomes within a range narrow by modern standards.

    The history of world civilization. 3 cyclus (1450-2070) New time ("new antiquity"), capitalism ("new slaveownership"), upper mental (causal) plan. 19. 1450-1700 -"neoarchaics". 20. 1700-1790 -"neoclassics". 21. 1790-1830 -"romanticism". 22. 1830-1870 – «liberalism». Modern time (lower intuitive plan) 23. 1870-1910 – «imperialism». 24. 1910-1950 – «militarism». 25.1950-1990 – «social-imperialism». 26.1990-2030 – «neoliberalism». 27. 2030-2070 – «neoromanticism». New history. We understand the new history generally in the same way as the representatives of Marxist history. It is a history of establishment of new social-economic formation – capitalism, which, in difference to the previous formations, uses the economic impelling and the big machine production. The most important classes are bourgeoisie and hired workers, in the last time the number of the employees in the sphere of service increases. The peasants decrease in number, the movement of peasants into towns takes place; the remaining peasants become the independent farmers, who are involved into the ware and money economy. In the political sphere it is an epoch of establishment of the republican system, which is profitable first of all for the bourgeoisie, with the time the political rights and liberties are extended for all the population. In the spiritual plan it is an epoch of the upper mental, or causal (later lower intuitive) plan, the humans discover the laws of development of the world and man, the traditional explanations of religion already do not suffice. The time of the swift development of technique (Satan was loosed out of his prison, according to Revelation 20.7), which causes finally the global ecological problems.

  • The Pakticipation of the Jews of Feance in the Geeat
    THE PAKTICIPATION OF THE JEWS OF FEANCE IN THE GEEAT WAE BY CAPTAIN SYLVAIN HALFF Nothing can show in a more striking manner the diversity as well as the moral strength of the elements which constitute the Jewish family of France than the following fact. In July, 1914, some days before the declaration of war, there took place the final examination at the Ecole Polytechnique, the great national institution which gives to the country its best engineers and its most distinguished artillery officers. The first three on the list of successful candidates were Jews. The first—the "major," as he is called at the school—Sas- portes, was an Algerian; the second, Levy, was a Frenchman of Alsatian origin; the third, Cherechewsky, was a son of Bussia, a naturalized Frenchman. That is, in miniature, the physiognomy of French Jewry. Alsace is the cradle of the greater number of the Jews of France. The decree of October 24, 1870, made French citizens of our coreligionists in Algeria. The exodus from the countries where the Jew is oppressed—Eussia, Eoumania—has brought to France an im- portant contingent of the Jews of these lands. In the atmos- phere of liberty they are gradually becoming fused in the national crucible; this fusion is practically complete as regards those who have had a long sojourn among us, and the example of Cherechewsky is not an isolated one. Others, who are still aliens, will follow that example in time. Already, as will be seen further on, they have endeavored to pay their debt of 2 32 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK gratitude to hospitable France by rallying in their thousands to its standard.
