History
In 1994, Jim and JoAnn Carland formed a not for profit corporation called the International Academy for Case Studies, which launched the Journal of the International Academy for Case Studies. In 1995 they formed another not for profit corporation called the Academy of Entrepreneurship, which launched the Academy of Entrepreneurship Journal and the Entrepreneurial Executive. In 1996, as interest in different subject areas grew, the Allied Academies was formed to oversee the affiliated academies. Since then new Academies and journals have been added.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“There is nothing truer than myth: history, in its attempt to “realize” myth, distorts it, stops halfway; when history claims to have “succeeded” this is nothing but humbug and mystification. Everything we dream is “realizable.” Reality does not have to be: it is simply what it is.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
“The greatest horrors in the history of mankind are not due to the ambition of the Napoleons or the vengeance of the Agamemnons, but to the doctrinaire philosophers. The theories of the sentimentalist Rousseau inspired the integrity of the passionless Robespierre. The cold-blooded calculations of Karl Marx led to the judicial and business-like operations of the Cheka.”
—Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)
“The principal office of history I take to be this: to prevent virtuous actions from being forgotten, and that evil words and deeds should fear an infamous reputation with posterity.”
—Tacitus (c. 55–c. 120)
