The Economics of Prehistory

26 March 2009

| Dick Langlois |

Greg Dow at Simon Fraser is organizing a conference this summer on “Early Economic Developments.”

This conference is a meeting for scholars interested in economic aspects of prehistoric events. The organizers welcome proposals for papers on topics at the boundaries among economics, archaeology, and anthropology. Topics can include economic prehistory, the economics of human biological evolution; pre-industrial economic history; and the evolution of economic, social, and political institutions.

Looks interesting. Abstract deadline is April 15, which I guess isn’t tax day in Canada.
