Financial History Review

Aims & Scope

Financial History Review is the international forum for all scholars with interests in the development of banking, finance, and monetary matters.

Its editors deliberately seek to embrace the broadest approach to publishing research findings within this growing historical specialism.

Articles address all aspects of financial and monetary history, including technical and theoretical approaches, those derived from cultural and social perspectives and the interrelations between politics and finance.

These presentations of current research are complemented by somewhat shorter pieces, specifically conceived as aids to research.

Each issue contains a substantial review section, and every complete volume contains an annual bibliography.
