Resumo: Abstract This paper discusses the specificity of the initial impact of the British Industrial Revolution on China´s economy. This approach is important to a better understanding of the nature of the beginnings of capitalism in that country, a process which was both intentionally and unintentionally influenced by the contacts between UK and China. These early conditions contributed towards defining the subsequent course of the Chinese economy, leading to a low-growth trap experienced between about 1870 and 1950.

El "primer choque" con las tecnologías occidentales fue con China como la nación más rica del mundo. La especificidad de este primer choque ayuda a comprender la naturaleza del desarrollo capitalista inicial en esa región, conformado por procesos no intencionales e intencionales provocados por estos contactos entre el Reino Unido y China. La percepción de que China tuvo de su posición en el contexto global durante la primera mitad del siglo XVIII dio forma a la respuesta lenta y tardía a las transformaciones desencadenadas por la Revolución Industrial.Resumo Este artigo discute a especificidade do impacto inicial da Revolução Industrial britânica sobre a China. Essa especificidade é importante para entender a natureza do desenvolvimento capitalista inicial naquela região, moldado por processos não-intencionais e intencionais desencadeados pelos contatos entre o Reino Unido e a China. Essas condições iniciais contribuem para uma trajetória seguida posteriormente pela economia chinesa. Nesse sentido, este artigo investiga as origens de uma armadilha específica enfrentada pela China - uma trajetória de baixo crescimento entre a segunda metade do século XIX e 1950.
