The so-called Crisis of Aging is defined as the loss of British hegemony in Europe in the late 19th century.
Several factors contributed to this decline:
- Early industrialization limited growth due to factors like low educational attainment, labor force issues, resource limitations, and fixed capital investment.
- Loss of comparative advantages due to low adoption of technology and inadequate organization of the Second Industrial Revolution, adversely affecting productivity, exports, and the overall economy.
- Increased international competition and the rise of protectionist trade policies, while Great Britain remained committed to free trade.
- Institutional rigidity, including employers’ resistance to new organizational methods, lack of direct bank intervention, and issues within the educational system and public opinion.
There is a clear relationship between these factors and the climacteric crisis, which led to Britain’s loss of hegemony.
Britain was the first industrial country, as reflected in the data, but experienced a loss of hegemony.
Key features of this period included:
- Significant changes in the structure of production.
- Increased urbanization.
- Large population inflows, both internal and external.
- Low enrollment rates and modest investment rates.
Great Britain initially benefited from its early industrialization and the speed of its structural transformation.
