Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the creation of the AUP Seminar on the History of Political Economy. Hosted by the American University of Paris, the seminar will provide an Anglophone space for people based in (or passing through) the Paris area to present and discuss research bearing on the multiple historical connections between economics and broader social concerns.

The schedule for the Spring 2023 term is transcribed below. All sessions will take place at the AUP campus, in the heart of the French capital’s 7th arrondissement.
