Abstract
The term cliometrics (a neologism linking the concept of measurement to the muse of history) was apparently coined at Purdue University, Indiana, US, in the late 1950s. Originally applied to the study of economic history as undertaken by scholars trained as economists (and also called, by its practitioners and others, the ‘new economic history’, ‘econometric history’, and ‘quantitative economic history’), more recently cliometrics has been applied to a broader range of historical studies (including the ‘new political history’, the ‘new social history’, and, most inclusively, ‘social science history’).
