Economic History of Developing Regions now published by Taylor & Francis
EHSSA is proud to announce a publishing partnership with Taylor & Francis for its journal, Economic History of Developing Regions. Most of economic history has focused on the industrialised North. Economic History of Developing Regions promotes the study of economic change in the developing South, including Africa, Asia and Latin America. The journal will accept papers from both quantitative and qualitative methodological traditions, or any combination of the two. We seek submissions with an economic history focus from disciplines such as general history, cliometrics, business history, labour history, financial history, development studies and others. For more information, please visit the Journal’s website at: http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/titles/20780389.asp
