The History of Economic Thought (HET) Website serves as a repository of collected links and information on the history of economic thought, from the ancient times until the modern day. It is designed for students and the general public, who are interested in learning about economics from a historical perspective.

Created, written and maintained by Gonçalo L. Fonseca, the HET website was originally launched in 1998, and hosted for a long time on a faculty server at the New School for Social Research. It subsequently jumped around through other servers, but is now permanently located at http://www.hetwebsite.net/het/ . 

I would like to acknowledge the invaluable support and assistance of the Institute for New Economic Thinking (INET) since 2013, which has enabled me to expand, revise and revamp the HET Website.  It now has profiles of over a thousand economists and schools of thought, more surveys and essays, and new, updated links to tens of thousands of articles and books.
