The original goal of this guide was, in a sense, to conduct a global census of who was teaching business history, what they were teaching, and to whom (business students? humanities students? social scientists? etc.) It was not intended to include every course, but to provide a large sample. We decided early on that, for the purposes of our project, ―business history‖ would include histories of finance, management, and capitalism more broadly. To keep our project manageable, however, we also decided to exclude many economic history courses, histories with too narrow a temporal framework (e.g., ―Business in the Great Depression‖), as well as most syllabi older than 2008. We also wanted to insure that we remained sensitive to the diversity of business history approaches around the world.
