      USBIG was founded in December 1999 by Fred Block of University of California-Davis, Charles M. A. Clark of St. John's University, Pamela Donovan of the City University of New York, Michael Lewis of the State University of New York-Stony Brook, and Karl Widerquist, then of the Levy Economics Institute. It is currently managed by the USBIG Coordinating Committee (see below).

      The USBIG Network is an informal discussion group with no formal structure or bylaws. The goal of USBIG is to increase discussion of BIG in the United States. Its activities include annual conferences, a bimonthly newsletter, and a discussion paper series. Membership is free and open to anyone who shares its goals.
