Funded Activity Summary

New perspectives on Australian economic history: Geography, institutions and major episodes. This project will contribute directly to an improved knowledge of the determinants of the structure of economic activity, and macroeconomic performance and economic growth in Australia. Having a better understanding of the main influences on Australian economic growth will assist in the development of policies to promote these outcomes. The project will also make a significant addition to international knowledge in the field of new comparative economic history by adding an extra body of evidence to cross-country perspectives on the determinants of national economic performance that draws on Australia's distinctive geography and institutions. Finally, the project will provide valuable research training and skills.
