History of Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries : 계몽주의 의의와 한계

1650-1775, the victory or defeat of the revolution determined economic development | From the Scientific Revolution to slavery, the birth of the modern world

From the mid-17th century to the late 18th century, Europe experienced 125 years of social peace. However, these times were never calm. The Netherlands and Britain, where the revolution won, made economic leaps, while Eastern Europe, where the counter-revolution won, went back 200 years.

This video covers five key changes that shaped the modern world: regional gaps in economic development, the shift from superstition to science, the light and shadow of the Enlightenment, the invention of slavery and racism, and even the contradictions of capitalist economics presented by Adam Smith.
