Palgrave Macmillan was formed when St. Martin's Press Scholarly and Reference and Macmillan Press (UK) united their worldwide publishing operations.

The history of the company, located in the historic Flatiron Building in New York City, begins with the founding of its parent company, Macmillan Publishers Limited, in England, by Daniel and Alexander Macmillan in 1843. Macmillan opened an office in New York in the late 1860s, that was later sold becoming what is now Macmillan USA. After the sale, Macmillan realized the importance of having a publishing arm in the United States. In 1952 St. Martin’s Press was formed, named after the street that housed the Macmillan headquarters in London. St. Martin's Press is one of the ten largest general publishers in the United States and is an important publisher of college, trade, mass market, and scholarly titles. The scholarly imprint of St. Martin's Press became what is known today as Palgrave.

Palgrave publishes a wide range of books in the humanities and social sciences and presently has over 5,000 active titles. In subjects ranging from Political Science to History to Literature, the list contains original works by many of the foremost academic writers and editors in the world, including several Nobel laureates. In addition, Palgrave is the North American distributor of the following UK publishers: Berg Publishers and I.B.Tauris and the U.S. distributor for Manchester University Press and Zed Books.
