Public lecture of Prof. Robert C Allen from Oxford
Under the aegis of GGDC a new lecture series will be launched, the Maddison Master Class in Economic History and Development. The first event kicks off with a public lecture of Prof. Robert C Allen from Oxford, who has been a leading expert on the history of economic growth.
The event takes place between 15:30 and 18:30 on Monday 21 November in the Senaatskamer, Academy building. The topic should be very interesting for everyone in GGDC and it would be nice if we could show a strong turnout.
