The Economics of Slavery - Alfred H Conrad & John R Meyer

The Economics of Slavery: And Other Studies in Econometric History by Alfred H Conrad & John R Meyer is an argument for and a demonstration of the point of view that the restricted approach of "measurement without theory" is not necessary in history, or at least not necessary in economic history. After two chapters of theoretical introduction, the authors explore the meanings and implications of evidence, explanation and proof in history by applying econometric methods to the analysis of three major problems in 19th century economic history - the profitability of slavery in the antebellum South, income growth and development in the United States during the 1800's, and The Great Depression in the British economy.
