As a result of recent work on historical national accounting, it is now possible to establish more firmly the timing of the Great Divergence of living standards between Europe and Asia in the 18th century. This column shows that there was a European Little Divergence as Britain and the Netherlands overtook Italy and Spain, and an Asian Little Divergence as Japan overtook China and India. The Great Divergence occurred because Japan grew more slowly than Britain and the Netherlands starting from a lower level, and because of a strong negative growth trend in Qing dynasty China.

Keith Haring was a revolutionary artist who transformed the art world during his short but impactful life, having become known initially for art that proliferated in the New York subway system during the early 1980s. A key belief was that “Art is for everybody.” He created a truly public art from chalk drawings in the subways to the establishment of his Pop Shop, where his artwork could be obtained at an affordable price. By expressing universal concepts – birth, death, love, sex, and war – through a directness of line and message, he gained an audience that was broad and secured the staying power of his imagery.
