Wim Klooster is the Robert H. and Virginia N. Scotland Chair and Professor of History and International Relations at Clark University. He is the (co-) author and (co-) editor of twelve books. His monograph The Dutch Moment: War, Trade, and Settlement in the Seventeenth Century Atlantic World (2016) won the Biennial Book Award of the Forum on Early-Modern Empires and Global Interactions and the Hendricks Award of the New Netherland Institute.

'Klooster has collected seventy-one essays, managing to give an idea of the ongoing debate: solid reconstructions … attempt to bring together historiography and history from different schools and perspectives. One can only appreciate the desire to reconstruct the historiographical debate because it opens the doors to the lives of scholars and their motivations and determinations in electing a theme and a research direction … The necessary nuances and chiaroscuro make the picture more authentic and point to other possible studies.' Michaela Valente, Archivio Storico Italiano
