AGRICLIOMETRICS V
Quantitative Approaches to Rural, Agricultural and Environmental History
The fifth AGRICLIOMETRICS conference is to be held in Montevideo, Uruguay, on 7-8 December, 2023. It will be organized in the Economics Institute, Universidad de la República, Uruguay, with the assistance of colleagues from the University of Zaragoza, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, New York University Abu Dhabi, Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, and Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, and supported by the Department of Economics, Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y de Administración (FCEA), Universidad de la República, Uruguay.
This conference aims to offer scholars working on quantitative rural, agricultural and natural resources history (and related issues) an opportunity to discuss their work in progress. We welcome papers on topics related to the use of quantitative techniques for the understanding of relevant problems in rural, agricultural and environmental history. Given the benefits arising from a cross-disciplinary dialogue, papers coming from different disciplines are particularly encouraged, especially from demographers, economists, sociologists, political scientists and historians. Papers by young scholars are especially welcome.
Anyone wishing to present a paper should send a 500 word abstract by no later than April 30th, 2023, to: henry.willebald@fcea.edu.uy. Decisions regarding acceptance will be sent out no later than June 30th, 2023. Final versions of the accepted papers are expected by no later than November 1st, 2023. They will be circulated to all participants prior to the meeting and published on the workshop website.
The organizing committee is integrated by: Francisco J. Beltrán Tapia (Norwegian University of Science and Technology), Giovanni Federico (New York University Abu Dhabi), Eva Fernández (Universidad Carlos III de Madrid), Pablo Martinelli Lasheras (Universidad Carlos III de Madrid), Vicente Pinilla (Universidad de Zaragoza) and Patrick Svensson (Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences).
