Mathematical history?

Apparently, there is a new journal called "Cliodynamics: The Journal of Theoretical and Mathematical History". Rajob Khan discusses a paper from that journal in the post The rise and fall of great powers is stochastic. Rajib also links to two review of his which I missed. Both are from 2008, the first a review of Peter Turchin's 'War Peace and War'Cliodynamics, the rise & fall of empires and asabiya and the second of Peter Turchin's 'Historical Dynamics: Why States Rise and Fall' Historical Dynamics and contingent conditions of religion .
