"Economists and jurists" is a project of the prosopographical study of economists and jurists from the XIXth century to now.

This project will be carried out using the data made available on the DBpedia, Wikidata and BnF Data SPARQL endpoints. The data will be aggregated and cleansed, the final aim is to obtain a certain volume of consistent information, expressed with a coherent ontology, in order to implement some analysis and identify some characteristics and structural aspects of this population.

Inside this website, you will find different types of information.
First, it is possible to find explanations about the study's finalities. That is to say, how we chose the population: Who are the potential individuals into this study, during which chronological milestones, and in which geographical bounds. Then, the all analysis are realised with Jupyter notebooks. The all notebooks that we have carried out are available and explained.
