Title ProperPartial Diffusion of Power
LanguageENG
AuthorRosecrance, Richard
Publication2014.
Summary / Abstract (Note)It is commonplace that some national traits diffuse rapidly to other countries. At the extreme, some have even suggested that no country needs another and each can replicate in place what all others possess-technology, resources, labor, and capital. I will claim not only that this is false, but that the differentiation of function and power which remains is conducive to cooperation. Too great a spread of homogeneous traits and too even a distribution of power would reduce specialization and the need for trade and political association. I point below to cases where a continuing differentiation of both traits led to greater cooperation.
