飞机发明的社会背景中国人最早发明了风筝和风扇(螺旋桨),然而中国人并没有发明飞机。飞机的发明和发展是近代科学技术进步的产物。15世纪至18世纪,是西欧资本主义开始兴起的时期,也被称为前工业革命时期。18世纪60年代,英国首先发生工业革命(即产业革命)。法、德、美等国也相继于19世纪完成这一革命。工业革命使社会生产力迅猛发展。至于中国此时为什么没有出现工业革命,不是这里所要讨论的问题。
The Social Background of Aircraft Invention The Chinese pioneered the development of kites and fans (propellers), yet the Chinese did not invent the aircraft. The invention and development of aircraft is a product of the progress of modern science and technology. From the fifteenth to the eighteenth centuries, capitalism in western Europe began to rise, also known as the pre-industrial revolution. In the 1860s, the first industrial revolution (industrial revolution) took place in Britain. France, Germany and the United States also completed this revolution one after another in the 19th century. The industrial revolution brought rapid social productivity growth. Why China did not have an industrial revolution at this time is not the issue to be discussed here.
