Cliometrics

Cliometrics (/ˌkl.əˈmɛt.rɪks/, also /ˌklˈmɛt.rɪks/), sometimes called 'new economic history'[1] or 'econometric history',[2] is the systematic application of economic theory, econometric techniques, and other formal or mathematical methods to the study of history (especially social and economic history).[3] It is a quantitative approach to economic history (as opposed to qualitative or ethnographic).[4]

There has been a revival in 'new economic history' since the late 1990s.[5][6]

The 'new economic history', sometimes called economic history or cliometrics, is not often practiced in Europe. However, it is fair to say that efforts to apply statistical and mathematical models currently occupy the centre of the stage in American economic history.

Among the most recent of the changes in emphasis-today's new history-is the rise of the "new economic history" or, as it is variously called, econometric history or cliometric.
