The Centre for Globalisation Research (CGR) conducts research, dissemination and user engagement activities around four research themes:
Since 2008, scholarly outputs, many underpinned by research grants, include 88 peer-reviewed journal articles, four books, nine book chapters and 90 papers in the CGR Working Paper Series.
CGR is composed by academics based at Queen Mary University of London. Members also comprise researchers based at other universities in UK and overseas. Along with visiting scholars, who make a significant contribution to the Centre’s academic life, we host PhD students with an interest in our four research themes.

The aim of the seminars is to present early-stage papers and receive timely feedbacks from peers to improve papers before submission.
A previous post outlined a number of major inventions (or macro-inventions) of the eighteenth century that were basis for the inventions of the nineteenth century that propelled productivity growth. These innovations, according to Robert Allen, would not have taken place in Britain in the absence of cheap coal deposits. Another unique factor driving the innovations was Britain’s expensive labour. Labour was expensive in Britain, and economic historians have traced the origins of the high wages back to the Black Death plague (in the 14th century) that reduced the working age population significantly. Moreover, Britain’s commercial success in international economy played a role in the growth of wages.
