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.
期刊介绍:
An applied economics journal with a strong policy orientation, The Australian Economic Review publishes high-quality articles applying economic analysis to a wide range of macroeconomic and microeconomic topics relevant to both economic and social policy issues. Produced by the Melbourne Institute of Applied Economic and Social Research, it is the leading journal of its kind in Australia and the Asia-Pacific region. While it is of special interest to Australian academics, students, policy makers, and others interested in the Australian economy, the journal also considers matters of international interest.
