The paper, which focuses on 19th century estimates, proposes a set of "rules" or a broadly common methodology to enable better comparability of the results. Read the paper by @brankomilan.bsky.social, @philerfurth.bsky.social, @mgzl.bsky.social, & @ggabbuti.bsky.social.

🎉 Thrilled and grateful to the @fundacionareces.bsky.social for funding my project “The Price of Empire: State Capacity and Inequality in Castile, 1528-91”, with @mgzl.bsky.social, studying inequality and tax capacity at municipal level in 16th-century Castile. #EconomicHistory #Inequality

How exceptional was Italy’s inequality path in the interwar years? What was the role of wars, depression, and authoritarianism?🚨 Our new paper w/ @ggabbuti.bsky.social explores these questions. Full article here 👇https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0014498325000622?via%3Dihub

🧵Economic History Transformed: What 25 Years of Data Reveal 1/ No longer just descriptive stats & British factories. It’s global, data-driven, and methodologically bold field. We analysed 25 years of publications in 5 top journals using NLP and network analysis. Here’s what we found 👇 @voxeu.org

@gregorigv.bsky.social & @victormgomezblanco.bsky.social use natural language processing and network analysis of economic history articles to identify a shift towards a more global, data-driven, and methodologically advanced field. cepr.org/voxeu/column... #EconSky
Chart showing the methodological evolution of economic history. The share of qualitative studies has drastically decreased since 2000 and quantitative studies using panel data and causal analysis have increased.

Economic history is increasingly able to provide us with evidence and inform pressing questions at the intersection of research and real-world decision-making. This column uses natural language processing and network analysis of articles from five leading journals over the past 25 years to identify a shift towards a more global, data-driven, and methodologically advanced field. It maps changing thematic priorities, institutional collaborations, and author networks, highlighting both a generational turnover and growing geographical diversity. It also reveals a strong move towards causal identification-based econometrics alongside a sharp decline in qualitative research, signalling both convergence and trade-offs in the discipline’s integration with mainstream economics.
