===================== HES POSTING ======================= 
 
Dear HESers:  
 
We are pleased to announce the continuation of a popular feature on HES 
-- the monthly guest editorials!  
 
HES guest editorials are short provocative essays written to stimulate 
discussion on topics of interest to historians of economics. Some of the 
topics discussed will suggest new lines of research, others will address 
old issues in new ways.  
 
We encourage you to respond to the editorials by posting a message to the 
list.The discussion about each editorial will be archived both in the HES 
list archives and via a separate web site for each guest editorial. The 
latter site will be especially useful for instructors who wish to assign 
the editorials for classroom reading -- students will have access to the 
editorials, the conversation emerging from them, and related links.  
 
The first editorial of the 1997-98 academic year, by Anthony Brewer, will 
follow this message shortly. Subsequent editorials will be posted near the 
beginning of each month throughout the academic year.  
 
We invite you to nominate individuals to write editorials (including 
yourself!), and/or to suggest topics. You can respond privately to any of 
the editors of HES:
