Many people have commented that laissez-faire government policy will industrialize a nation rapidly. This is true. But that policy typically only comes in after the industrialists rise to power in a nation. For that to happen, a nation needs more industry. In this video, we consider the early 19th Century economic history of Europe and what factors will enhance or hinder a nation's efforts to industrialize.
The book I mentioned in the video is "An Economic History of Nineteenth-Century Europe: Diversity and Industrialization" by Ivan Berend, Cambridge University Press, published November 2012.
