It may have been End of Eternity.

I actually remember most of End of Eternity reltively well, it was my first Asmov book as a kid. Read it again many times of course. Excellent and unique book.

Although for whatever reason, I can't 100% say if that "space exploration as a global driver of advanced civilization" idea was from End of Eternity.
