Research articles and research theses constitute two key genres used by scientific communities for the dissemination and ratification of knowledge.
These include specialised monographs, recent theses, journal and newspaper articles, church archives and collections of private papers.
Education and holidays also feature largely in this selection of theses on children and cities.
Many economists, however, have understood the two theses as the two sides of the same coin and sought micro foundations as a consequence.
The chapters do not generally elaborate the theoretical implications of the editors' theses, but provide a wealth of evidence to support them.
This core information is supplemented with additional citations of books, meeting abstracts, theses and other publications.
The ancient world made a welcome reappearance in three theses.
The chapters are grounded in exhaustive research, in several cases making accessible the findings of unpublished doctoral theses.
