The aim of the NETWORK dedicated to the history of the monastic economy is to nurture research in the field, namely by fostering contacts and bringing together academics from different thematic and institutional backgrounds. The key events are the three workshops held in 2017-2019. They intend to provide a forum for discussion of completed or ongoing studies covering a wide range of topics related to the monastic economy. The comparative approach and the long-term relevance are expected to take shape in the course of the debates over the case studies and the general trends in South-Eastern and Western Europe.
