Fluctuation in wheat prices during harvest crises (1519-1872). Jean Meuvret has demonstrated the extreme amplitude ofearly modem grain price fluctuations in the Paris region. Meuvret associated these movements with genuine subsistence crises. However, the identification of shocks based on priees requires a definition of what is considered a « normal price » which can introduce considerable bias in the interpretation of results. This article suggests a statistical identification of crises which is based on the time series properties of grain prices. Starting from ARIMA models which relate current observations to lagged ones, we are able to define a shock in terms of excessive residuals from the auto-regressive model. We thus obtain a new hie...
