Maddison Project

 

The Maddison Project has been initiated in March 2010 by a group of close colleagues of Angus Maddison, with the aim to support an effective way of cooperation between scholars to continue Maddison’s work on measuring economic performance for different regions, time periods and subtopics.


The project consists of a two tier structure:

A small working party of four persons who will coordinate the actual work to integrate and bring new estimates together and to update the output and population series on a regular basis.


The working party for the ‘Maddison project’ will be advised by a larger advisory board, which consists of a broad group of scholars, and which contributes and helps to assess the quality of the estimates for (parts of) the project.



The first meeting of the advisory board was held on 5/6 November 2010 at the International Institute of Social History
