Ludwik Krzywicki
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ludwik Krzywicki was a Polish economist and sociologist. One of the founders of the sociology discipline in Poland, he always approached historical materialism from the sociological viewpoint.
One of his most important contributions was the theory of the "migration of ideas": that ideas, which are created from and spread thanks to social needs and social expectations, can "migrate" to other places or times, which are not yet capable of expressing them autonomously. When that happens, if those new ideas succeed in embodying needs and expectations encountered at this new place, they will take root and accelerate socio-economic development.
