World Economic History Congress, Paris, 25-29 July 2022
The 19th World Congress will be held in Paris on July 25-29, 2022. The Congress will address “resources” as one of the main challenges of the contemporary world. The Congress will consider sessions on all the categories of resources, that is natural, material, immaterial and human (work and skill): water, air, energy, food products, raw materials, labour, capital, patents etc.
The organizing committee welcomes a large set of approaches in economic history including social history, urban and rural history, history or economics of finance, sciences and technologies, gender history, cultural history, etc. – and crossovers with other disciplinary fields, including management studies, demography, geography, environment, anthropology, sociology, socio-psychology etc. It also invites panels about methods in economic history, history of economic thought or economic theory, as well as innovative discussion of new sets of data and archives, or public communication of new (or renewed) results in economic history.
The plenary sessions are lectures presented by internationally renowned researchers (keynote lectures):
- Pr. Bruce Campbell (Queen's University Belfast): “Environmental change, renewable resources and the economic history of the pre-industrial world”
- Pr. Catherine Coquery-Vidrovitch (Université de Paris)
