Economic History Workshop

The weekly workshop in economic history (officially “ECON 589: Economic History Workshop”) is a central part of the program. Speakers include Yale faculty and graduate students as well as distinguished scholars from other institutions. Papers are normally available in advance, and we emphasize informal discussion of the paper. All are welcome, regardless of department or institutional affiliation.
