Haris Kitsikopoulos is the creator and academic director of a program of advanced summer seminars (Unbound Prometheus) and a former Clinical Professor at the Economics Department of New York University, USA. His work focuses on British economic history, from the Middle Ages to the Industrial Revolution, with particular emphasis on how institutions affect technological innovation and long-term economic growth. He has edited a collection of essays on the European economies of the late Middle Ages (Agrarian Change and Crisis in Europe, 1200-1500) and authored a book on the first generation of British steam engines (Innovation and Technological Diffusion: An Economic History of Early Steam Engines). He is also the author of several articles some of which appeared in leading journals in the field of economic history (e.g., Journal of Economic History, Economic History Review, and Agricultural History Review). Dr. Kitsikopoulos has been invited as a Visiting Scholar at the University of Tokyo and has held research fellowships from the National Endowment for the Humanities (twice) and the Smithsonian. He is also the recipient of the Henry Allen Moe Prize, awarded for the best article published in the journal of the American Philosophical Society, the oldest academic institution in the US.
