Call for Papers: 7th international meeting of the Asociación Uruguaya de Historia Económica

The Call for Papers to attend the 7th international meeting of the Asociación Uruguaya de Historia Económica is open until May 31st. Conference dates, 4-5 of December, in Montevideo, Uruguay.


We hope that this new edition of the Uruguayan Economic History Conference will constitute, just as in earlier editions, a space for meeting, discussion, reflection and collaboration that reinforces the links that unite the community of Uruguayan Economic Historians with colleagues in other countries, as well as in other Social Science disciplines. We thus extend this call with the conviction that Economic History, in dialogue and reciprocal fertilization with other disciplinary traditions, increases its potential as a suitable tool for reconstructing the past and searching for explanations of the problems of economic and social development.

The Conference will include ten symposiums:

The symposiums will focus on the following topics:

 ·         SYMPOSIUM 1. Análisis y métodos del desempeño comparado de las economías latinoamericanas

·         SYMPOSIUM 2. Banca y mercados financieros en América Latina

·         SYMPOSIUM 3. Concentración, desigualdad y relaciones de poder en el largo plazo

·         SYMPOSIUM 4. De la Economía Social histórica a la Economía Social y Solidaria: viejas y nuevas configuraciones

·         SYMPOSIUM 5. Educación, conocimiento y desarrollo en perspectiva histórica

·         SYMPOSIUM 6. Empresas y empresarios en América Latina

·         SYMPOSIUM 7. Estado social y de bienestar: recursos, instituciones y política en el largo plazo

·         SYMPOSIUM 8. Innovación y cambio tecnológico en la historia económica. Uruguay y la región. Siglos XIX y XX

  Dear subscribers to The Exchange: I am happy to announce that our blog is moving platforms. For almost a decade, the Business History Conference has used Blogger to publish and archive posts. However, in early 2021, the blogging site announced that their email serving service would be terminated. In addition, we noticed that many of our subscribers had stopped receiving the blog’s emails, and our subscription provides very limited reporting.
