Malthusian Dynamism and the Rise of Europe: Make War, Not Love
论证马尔萨斯体制下人均收入可以持续变化，死亡率与生育率变动导致不同稳态收入水平，欧洲通过晚婚降低生育率、结合高死亡率与高收入来抑制工资下行压力，而这两者均源于黑死病。
This paper argues that Malthusian regimes are capable of sustained changes in per capita incomes. Shifting mortality and fertility schedules can lead to different steady-state income levels, with long periods of growth during the transition. Europe checked the downward pressure on wages through late marriage, which reduced fertility, and a mortality regime that combined high death rates with high incomes. We argue that both emerged as a result of the Black Death.
