About this program
The History of Economics Society awards the Joseph J. Spengler Prize annually to the best original, authored scholarly book in the history of economics. The winner receives a $500 stipend, reimbursement of travel expenses up to $1,000 to attend the HES annual conference (53rd meeting: May 26–29, 2026, Nice, France), and a plaque presented at the banquet. Eligible works are original, authored (non‑edited) books or monographs in English published during the three calendar years preceding the meeting; textbooks and doctoral dissertations are ineligible. Up to two nominations per publisher are allowed (publishers must send a nominating note to the HES Secretary and ensure each judging committee member has a copy by December 31); individuals and HES members may self‑nominate, and a three‑member HES Selection Committee selects the winner.
