Abstract: The History of Economics Society (HES) initiated the History of Economics Society Bulletin ( HESB ) in 1979. Discussed at the 1978 meetings of the HES, the HESB was first conceived of as something "less" than History of Political Economy ( HOPE )—i.e., an academic journal with a defined editorial line—but also "more" than just a newsletter for HES members (Caldwell 2021; Vaughn, this issue). Edited by Karen E. Vaughn (1979 to 1983) and William O. Thweatt (1984 to 1989), the HESB began by publishing short notes and abstracts of papers presented at the annual meetings of the HES. Research articles (i.e., peer-reviewed documents) appeared for the first time in 1988 and book reviews in 1989. A year after, the HESB became the Journal of the History of Economic Thought ( JHET ), a full-fledged society journal under the editorship of Donald Walker (1990 to 1998). First published directly by its editor and the HES, the JHET started producing four yearly issues in 1998 under contract with Carfax as publisher. Carfax was eventually purchased by Taylor & Francis (Medema, this issue), and a new contract was signed with Cambridge University Press, both during Steven Medema's editorship (1999 to 2008). 1
