International Review of Social History, is one of the leading journals in its field. Truly global in its scope, it focuses on research in social and labour history from a comparative and transnational perspective, both in the modern and in the early modern period, and across periods. The journal combines quality, depth and originality of its articles with an open eye for theoretical innovation and new insights and methods from within its field and from contiguous disciplines. Besides research articles, it features surveys of new themes and subject fields, a suggestions and debates section, review essays and book reviews. It is esteemed for its annotated bibliography of social history titles, and also publishes an annual supplement of specially commissioned essays on a current theme. The 2008 supplement was on on the "return of the guilds": contributors re-examine guilds within a international and transcontinental comparative framework and from the perspective of re-appraisal of the classic strict distinction between "capitalist" and "pre-capitalist" modes of production.
