Industry structure, entrepreneurship, and culture: An empirical analysis using historical coalfields
Michael Stuetzer,Michael Stuetzer,Martin Obschonka,Martin Obschonka,David B. Audretsch,Michael Wyrwich,Peter J. Rentfrow,Mike Coombes,Leigh Shaw-Taylor,Max Satchell +9 more
TL;DR: This article analyzed the long-term imprinting effect by using the distance to coalfields as an exogenous instrument for the regional presence of large-scale industries and found that British regions with high employment shares of large scale industries in the 19th century, due to their spatial proximity to coal mines, have lower entrepreneurship rates and weaker entrepreneurship culture today.

TL;DR: Analyzing data from England and Wales, the results show how today’s regional patterns of personality and well-being may have their roots in major societal changes underway decades or centuries earlier.
Journal ArticleDOI
The geography of smallpox in England before vaccination: A conundrum resolved.
TL;DR: The historical pattern of smallpox in England supports phylogenetic evidence for a relatively recent origin of the variola strains that circulated in the twentieth century, and provides evidence for the efficacy of preventative strategies complementary to immunisation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cholera as a 'sanitary test' of British cities, 1831-1866.
TL;DR: It is concluded that any worsening of water quality in urban areas c.1800–1850 was not confined to new͛ or rapidly growing industrial or manufacturing towns; and infants probably rarely drank untreated water, so high infant or diarrhoeal mortality rates should not be read as indicators of poor water quality, in the English context.
