Is it genetic? Look at the British, French, Spanish/Portuguese, Germans, Italians, etc... and then look at Estonians and Latvians and Belorussians. Same race yet totally different levels of innovative output. Why? Look at Europeans as a whole and compare their collective creative output to that of Sub-Saharan Africans. There's no comparison. Why?

The countries you have mentioned are not of same racial stock.But it doesn't have to do with race much.Think;med europeans created hellenic and roman civilization when germanics were simple barbarians.But then germanics and brits got the upper hand.It is a complex result of historical and geographical conditions.
If we compare eu to africa,It is debatable there are genetic differences or not. |

What geographical advantages? Living in a cold climate with less biodiversity and slow plant growth rates is hardly an advantage. |

Well, there is two ways of looking at this. There is the Sowell way and there is the Cinderella way (she's a poster here).
I think Sowell's trilogy on culture hits all the buttons. The reader reviews at amazon for his first of the three books doesn't explain it as well as I would like but I found one that is adequate enough. I'm too tired right now to be all intellectual and stuff. Is it genetic? Look at the British, French, Spanish/Portuguese, Germans, Italians, etc... and then look at Estonians and Latvians and Belorussians. Que?! I mean WHAT?! You not know Spaniards! I Catalan! I now! They have no Newton or Washington. They hate Catalans because we make everything and they steal from us!!!!! Now they think of moving soldiers to Catalonia!!! It true!!! Like Hitler do to Poland!!! Rajoy want to KILL US! Spain like Russia. They have no Newton. No apple tree. No nothing. Same race yet totally different levels of innovative output. Why? Look at Europeans as a whole and compare their collective creative output to that of Sub-Saharan Africans. There's no comparison. Why? It because they have no Newton. If they move to England or Catalonia they have Newton but no Newton on Africa. It sad story. *Cinderella mode off* |

Why? Look at Korea; north vs south. Same people. Compleatly different production output. So no. It's not "genetic". |

Culture of course. That kind of "production" means nothing, since Korean achivements are due to her "westernazing". In fact, I find your post highly counter"productive". |

Not climatic conditions but where it is situated on the globe. Its proximity to other regions and its coastline have accommodated the most interaction with other cultures and civilizations. |

You never get anything... You're suggesting that Japan is also productive only due to copying the west? (Ps. the "You never get anything..." was pretty exaggerated lol. Did you get your feelings hurt over something I said in another thread?) |

Same race yet totally different levels of innovative output. Why? Look at Europeans as a whole and compare their collective creative output to that of Sub-Saharan Africans. There's no comparison. Why? For example, Lithuania has achieved this: Do you know what equipment scientists working in Lithuanian laser laboratories jokingly call cepelinai – the name of a national Lithuanian dish? They are parametric light generators and amplifies manufactured by the Companies Å*viesos konversija and Ekspla, which account for about 80 per cent of the world market of these products. At some largest world research centres parametric light generators are used to study ultra-fast processes taking place in substances. The laser technology company Ekspla in Lithuania, which has inde-pendently created and manufactured laser systems and related equipment for 18 years already, occupies more than half the world market of scientific picoecond lasers and is the only one in the world to manufacture SFG (sensitive to submonolayer of molecules) spectrometers intended for studying surfaces of materials. The Company exports more than 90 per cent of its production to 40 count-ries. Well-known names of its customers Hitachi and Mitsubishi research centres, IBM, NASA, the USA navy and military air force centres show that the largest Lithuanian laser technology companies have been recognized among its customers. Last year the Company established its representation in China. http://www.madeinlithuania.lt/Techno...l_in_the_world |
