Econophysics in Belgium. The first (?) 15 years

General Finance 2012-12-11 v1 Physics and Society

Abstract

This reviews the econophysics activities in Belgium from my admittedly biased point of view. Unknown historical notes or facts are presented for the first time explaining the aims, whence evolution of the research papers and friendly connections with colleagues. Comments on endeavors are also provided. The lack of official, academic and private support is outlined.
