Abstract

This note reviews new approaches to topics in economic history that have come into practice in the last 20 years or so. The three main approaches are cliodynamics, big history and deep history. All three extend the time scale of economic history investigations to beyond that of written history and involve a variety of disciplines other than economics and history. Cliodynamics and big history are essentially quantitative. They use models to interpret historical phenomena and test hypotheses derived from the models. An example of a research topic is provided for each of the three new approaches. These new areas offer many opportunities for the student of economic history.

经济史的新方法

本文回顾了过去20年左右对经济史主题的新研究方法。三种主要的方法是气候动力学、大历史和深历史。这三者都将经济史研究的时间尺度扩展到了书面历史之外，并涉及到经济学和历史学以外的各种学科。大气动力学和大历史本质上是定量的。他们使用模型来解释历史现象，并检验从模型中得出的假设。为这三种新方法中的每一种提供了一个研究课题的例子。这些新领域为经济史学生提供了许多机会。
