In its first years, the journal was hosted and sponsored by the Instituto Universitário de Pesquisas do Rio de Janeiro (Universidade Cândido Mendes) and published by [[Brill Publishers]], until it moved to Berghahn journals in 2010 and was sponsored by the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute until 2016.
In 2017 substantial changes took place. The team of editors changed to {{:Margrit_Pernau}}, Jan Ifversen, and Jani Marjanen. They were joined by Rieke Trimcev and Gabriel Entin as book review editors, as well as Frederik Schröer and Luc Wodzicki as social media editors. Since 1 January 2017 until April 2022 the journal was affiliated with the [[University of Helsinki]] Centre for Intellectual History.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Pernau|first=Margrit|date=Summer 2017|title=Editorial|url=https://www.berghahnjournals.com/view/journals/contributions/12/1/choc120101.xml|journal=Contributions to the History of Concepts|volume=12/1|pages=v-vi}}</ref>
