History

When the History of Political and Social Concepts Group (now named History of Concepts Group) was founded in 1998, it established a History of Concepts Newsletter.[2] This newsletter was first published at the Huizinga Institute (University of Amsterdam) and then at the Renvall Institute for Area and Cultural Studies (Helsinki University). In 2005, the newsletter was replaced by Contributions to the History of Concepts.[3] The journal's founding editor-in-chief was João Feres, Jr. (Universidade Cândido Mendes). In its first years the journal was hosted and sponsored by the Instituto Universitário de Pesquisas do Rio de Janeiro (Universidade Cândido Mendes) and published by Brill Publishers, until it moved to Berghahn journals in 2010 and was sponsored by the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute until 2016.

In 2017 substantial changes took place. The team of editors changed to Margrit Pernau, Jan Ifversen, and Jani Marjanen. They are joined by Rieke Trimcev and Gabriel Entin as book review editors, as well as Frederik Schröer and Luc Wodzicki as social media editors. Since 1 January 2017 the journal is affiliated with the University of Helsinki Centre for Intellectual History.[4]

The journal is abstracted and indexed in Scopus.
