- Abstract
The article discusses the methodical and theoretical challenges which contemporary history faces when dealing with data and interpretations derived from the contemporary social sciences. It calls for combining a critical historicisation of analyses generated by the social sciences with a methodically reflected use of the underlying data. Examples for such possibilities for a social history of the Federal Republic of Germany since the 1970s include theories and data on changing societal values, the use of public statistics for migration history and the analysis of research results of industrial sociology and the German Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP).
