The History of Capitalism Project at Harvard Business School and Harvard University identifies and supports outstanding scholars whose work responds to the growing interest in the study of global capitalism from a historical perspective. We seek to organize a community of scholars who study aspects of the history of capitalism in all regions of the world and in all chronological periods. Global perspectives are strongly desired, as are contributions from a wide range of variety of disciplines. Hoping to create a global conversation on the history of capitalism, we encourage applicants from diverse backgrounds across the globe, especially from outside Europe and North America.

One History of Capitalism Fellow will be appointed for the academic year 2024-2025 and will be provided time, guidance, office space, and access to Harvard University facilities. Fellows should be prepared to devote their entire time to productive scholarship and must undertake sustained projects of new research or other original work. They will join a vibrant community of history of capitalism scholars at Harvard Business School and in the Harvard community more broadly.

This appointment is set to begin July 1, 2024 and run through December 31, 2024. Extension through June 30, 2024 is possible based on funding and performance.

Applications accepted on a rolling basis but should be submitted by December 1, 2023, to ensure full consideration.
