    在从500年至1500年这一时期的大部分时间中，西方是欧亚大陆的不发达地区。我们已看到，这种不发达与中国的发达比较起来，证明是一种优势，因为中国的发达起了使自身的发展速度放慢的作用。中国人享有高度发展的文化、先进的工艺、大规模的商业、以功绩为基础的有效的官僚机构以及提供社会凝聚力和思想理论基础的儒家信仰。中国人很自然地认为他们的文明优于其他任何文明，并认为外国人是“野蛮人”。这种态度虽然是可理解的，但却使中国人在一个巨变的时代没有发生变化。相形之下，西欧人拿来中国的一些发明，充分发挥这些发明的潜能，并将它们用于海外扩张。这种扩张反过来又引发更多的技术进步和制度变化。最终结果是中世纪文明转变为现代文明，而欧洲人则成为先驱者和受惠者。

    这一模式表明，历史的发展并不像通常所说的“一事成功百事顺”，人类学家们将此称为“受到阻滞的领先的法则”。该法则认为，最具适应性、最成功的社会要在转变时期改变和保持自己的领先地位，是极为困难的。相反，不太成功的落后社会更有可能适应变化，突飞猛进。
