In this 36th volume of Research in Economic History, editors
Christopher Hanes and Susan Wolcott assemble a cohort of experts to
present new historical data, analyses of historical questions, and
an investigation of historians' networks. The volume covers a range
of ideas, beginning with a look in to new data from the sources of
Swiss comparative advantage in the time of the first globalization,
and of funding for investments in Russian human capital from the
late imperial period to the present. A third paper turns to a
newly-created database of articles published in major economic
history journals from 1980-2018, demonstrating the breadth of
scholars' networks and the types of questions they asked. Then, the
volume pivots to North American economic development. Looking at
deflators when estimating Canadian economic growth between
1870-1900, a new, more complete price index for Canada is presented
which should alter scholars' views on the contributions of the
country to the North Atlantic economy. Another paper expands the
literature on the unusual US system of state and local banks in the
early 20th century. Finally, the volume presents new estimates on
the number and value of slaves entering the US during the
Antebellum period.
