N2 - This article explores the development of history of science in the Low Countries over the last two decades, pointing at a number of shifts in its participation and organization, that had a profound effect on its journals over the same period. The focus is on the last decade of Gewina and the full lifespan of its successor Studium, from 2008 to 2019 the main Dutch-language publication in the field. We include a statistical analysis of Studium articles as a background to its establishment and demise and the current switch to a number of new history of science journals in the Low Countries.
