Expertise and Research Interests
The SOUTHERN ECONOMIC JOURNAL, vol. 74, no. 4 (Apr. 2008), p. 992, ranks the field of economic history at the University of Delaware 15th among all the PhD granting economics departments in the U.S. This ranking is just behind Columbia and Yale (13th and 14th) and just ahead of Northwestern and Michigan (16th and 17th, respectively). Most, but not quite all, of this ranking for Delaware is the result of my publication record.
I have done extensive primary research on labor contracting, including indentured servitude, redemptioner servitude, free wage contracting, apprenticeship, slave and convict labor in America between 1620 and 1835. This research included studying British immigration and German immigration to America between 1620 and 1835 in its various aspects including immigrant literacy, education, occupations, anthropometrics (analysis of height variance), family structure, and geographic settlement patterns. I also study the market structure of passenger shipping across the Atlantic between 1620 and 1835.
I am currently engaged in an extensive study of 18th-Century American monetary regimes and their macroeconomic performance (1700-1811). This includes testing the economic impact of the U.S. Constitution over monetary and trade issues, and a large project to reassess the history and performance of the Continental Dollar between 1775 and 1795 that was issued by Congress during the American Revolution.
Typically, I build large computerized data-bases from information found in original manuscript sources, and then analyze this data using statistical and econometric methods and models guided by economic theory, including explicit hypothesis testing. The issues studied include contracting design and incentive structure, risk and malfeasance in contracted labor bargains, wage returns to different components of human capital, labor institution evolution, the interface between markets and law, and macro-monetary performance including purchasing power parity, the quantity theory of money, and changes in legislative and constitutional structures on macro-monetary performance.
I also have written on the philosophy of scientific methodology, particularly as it pertains to economic science, and on the Melanesian contract labor trade in 19th-Century Queensland, Australia.
My graduate school course work included graduate courses taken [#] from Douglass North [2], Robert Fogel [1], Gary Becker [3], George Stigler [2], and Robert Lucas [2]--all Nobel laureates subsequently in economics.
