Conference information:
This two-day conference aims to bring together researchers studying various aspects of the economic history of East, Southeast, and South Asian territories over the past 200 years. Special emphasis is placed on papers addressing topics such as foreign trade, trade policy, trade costs, economic growth, inequality, migration or foreign investment. However, studies examining other specific elements of the region’s long-term economic performance and research about Central Asia and the Middle East are also welcome.
The conference aims to bring together early-career and senior scholars to exchange data sources and methodologies for exploring the connections between globalization and economic growth in East and Southeast Asia. To foster reflection and discussion on this topic, Jean-Pascal Bassino from the École normale supérieure de Lyon will deliver a keynote speech. Additionally, participants will have the opportunity to enjoy the late-autumn landscapes of Pamplona, known as ‘the pearl of Northern Spain,’ while engaging with senior economic historians and PhD students from the Public University of Navarra (UPNA)
