Epainos Award 2017

 

This year’s Epainos prize for the most innovative and qualitative «Young Scientist» paper was granted to Daniel Oto-Peralías, University of St Andrews. His paper ‘Medieval Frontier Origins of a Country’s Economic Geography: The Case of Spain‘ provides enlightening insights into settlement patterns and spatial discontinuity.

 

 

«The Epainos session was the best-attended presentation I ever had in which I received very helpful comments. It is highly recommended
