- Research questions and components
In September 2005, the Mellon Foundation
funded an exploratory research project to assess the state ofscholarly publishing in the field of art and architectural history,
with the goal of understanding the challenges faced by bothscholars and publishers working in this area. The project was led
by the Columbia University Department of Art History andArchaeology and the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University,
with research assistance from the Princeton University Center forArts and Cultural Policy Studies (CACPS) and the Electronic
Publishing Initiative at Columbia (EPIC). A brief description ofthe research questions and investigative components of the project
follows.
Research questions
- Understand how scholarly publishing in art
history has changed during the past 20 years.
- Understand how the size and scope of art
history and related fields have changed over the past 20years.
- Assess current opportunities for art
historians to publish monographs (especially first books).
- Assess the implications of changing
publishing opportunities for the credentialing and professionaldevelopment of younger scholars in art history.
- Assess the impact of rising permissions
costs on opportunities to publish in art history.
- Assess the potential of other outlets
(including e-publishing, museum publications and journals) formonographic scholarship in art and architectural history.
Components of the research project
- Data were collected on the number of art
history books published by university presses since 1985. A sampleof these books was further broken down into the categories of
single-author works and museum-related works.
- Data were collected on Ph.D.’s awarded in
art history since 1979-80.
- Focused discussions were held with three
groups of art history scholars: 12 younger scholars (who receivedPh.D.’s within the past 10 years), 12 mid-career and senior
scholars, and the chairs of more than a dozen art history graduateprograms in the northeastern U.S.
- Semi-structured interviews were conducted
with 15 senior representatives of leading art history presses andother organizations with a significant interest in art history
scholarship and publishing.
- A focused discussion was held with a group
of art history editors from 27 presses at the annual meeting of theCollege Art Association.
- A survey was conducted with a sample of art
history editors on the characteristics of the art publishingprograms at their presses.
- A summit meeting of scholars, publishers and the Mellon Foundation was convened in an effort to forge a productive collaborative strategy for dealing with the challenges that affect both art history scholars and publishers.

In economics, a perfect market refers to a theoretical construct where all participants have perfect information, goods are homogenous, there are no barriers to entry or exit, and prices are determined solely by supply and demand. It's an idealized model used for analysis,

What is different between quantity demand and demand?
Quantity demanded refers to the specific amount of a good or service that consumers are willing and able to purchase at a give price and within a specific time period. Demand, on the other hand, is a broader concept that encompasses the entire relationship between price and quantity demanded

what is the difference between economic growth and development
Economic growth as an increase in the production and consumption of goods and services within an economy.but
Economic development as a broader concept that encompasses not only economic growth but also social & human well being.

sir...I just want to ask one question... Define the term contract curve? if you are free please help me to find this answer 🙏

it is a curve that we get after connecting the pareto optimal combinations of two consumers after their mutually beneficial trade offs

thank you so much 👍 sir

In economics, the contract curve refers to the set of points in an Edgeworth box diagram where both parties involved in a trade cannot be made better off without making one of them worse off. It represents the Pareto efficient allocations of goods between two individuals or entities, where neither p
