Dear SHOE Subscribers:
It is my great pleasure to announce that we have just registered the 1,000th member on our list.
Congratulations to Constance Andre-Aigret, a PhD student from University Lyon 2-Triangle UMR 5206 As the 1,000th subscriber to SHOE, Constance will receive one year's free membership in the History of Economics Society, which includes a year's subscription to the Journal of the History of Economic Thought.
One of the earliest and longest running academic email discussion lists, SHOE (Societies for the History of Economics) is a moderated forum, sponsored by the History of Economics Society and the European Society for the History of Economic Thought. Subscription is open to all those interested in the history of economics and/or economic thought, who are willing to participate in email discussion with an attitude of mutual respect.
SHOE features the discussion of persons, themes, sources and historical methods in the history of economics; announcements of funding, internet resources, conferences and other events; requests for information and some answers; and exchanges about teaching the history of economics. All messages are archived and openly available.
SHOE was established in February 1995 at Babson College, and originally known as the HES list. It joined the
