Work is central to human wellbeing, but job quality has received comparatively little attention in economic history and historical wellbeing studies. The inclusion of \u2018decent work\u2019 in the Sustainable Development Goals and the recent profusion of present-day job quality metrics provide an opportunity for historical social science to contribute to discussions about the development of job-related wellbeing and the determinants of good work.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Work and Wellbeing in History FRESH Meeting (8\u20139 June 2023) will bring together research on labor and quality of life in the past. The meeting will welcome economic and social historians, work researchers, and wellbeing scholars to share papers on work in the past, historical wellbeing, and the relationship between the two. We are delighted to welcome\u00a0<\/span>Professor Leandro Prados de la Escosura<\/span>\u00a0(Universidad Carlos III de Madrid) and\u00a0<\/span>Professor Amy Erickson<\/span>\u00a0(University of Cambridge), who are world-leading experts in the study of historical wellbeing and labor, to deliver keynote lectures.<\/span><\/p>\n
