Introduction
Escaping the Great Divergence? A discussion about and in response to Peer Vries's Escaping poverty. The origins of modern economic growth. An introduction
Eric Vanhaute
After the 2nd World War, two different models of society developed in the Nordic and Baltic countries, which were divided by the Cold War: the Nordic welfare states under Social Democratic governments and the Baltic socialist republics under Soviet occupation. Industrial production was the economic foundation for the welfare states and the socialist countries. In spite of ideological and national differences through the two shores of the Baltic Sea went through radical industrialization and modernization process in post-war high-industrial age.
