That is the theme for the 2007 Asia-Pacific Economic and Business History Conference at the University of Sydney. As noted in the call for papers: “While the historical study of market economies has been commonplace, there are many aspects worthy of further analysis including the role of savings, human capital, technology, government, and changing markets. Corporate governance has received wide attention in the wake of recent enterprise collapses, yet historians have only begun to research differences in corporate governance over time and among countries.”

The keynote speaker is Doug Irwin, author of several outstanding books on international trade theory and policy.
