The Library Company’s Program in Early American Economy and Society (PEAES) is dedicated to promoting scholarship in, and public understanding of, the origins and development of the early American economy, broadly conceived, encompassing business, finance, commerce, manufacturing, labor, political economy, households and gender, and technology. PEAES programs include research fellowships for both junior and senior scholars, a monograph publication series with Johns Hopkins University Press, publication of conference proceedings as special issues of scholarly journals, seminars throughout the academic year, a regional survey of manuscript and printed resources in economic history, and the acquisition, cataloging, and conservation of thousands of printed materials to augment the Library Company’s existing rich collections. With its public programs such as the annual conference PEAES wishes to extend these resources to as wide an audience as possible, and to engender a broad discussion of the Program’s themes.
