assistant professorship in the history of capitalism defined broadly to
encompass candidates working in labor history (free and unfree),
business history, economic history, history of economic thought,
history of consumer society, and the political economy of the nineteenth
and/or twentieth-century United States. The successful candidate must show
exceptional scholarly promise and will be expected to teach a range of
courses at the undergraduate level (including general chronological

as possible thereafter. Receipt of the Ph.D. is expected by
the time of appointment.
