Osterreichische Zeitschrift fur Geschichtswissenschaften

Aims & Scope

The Austrian Journal of Historical Studies (OeZG) has existed since 1990.

It publishes articles primarily on topics of women’s and gender history, cultural history, the history of science, political history, as well as economic- and social history.

Theoretical concepts and research methods are discussed in its articles as well as in discussions with researchers, in workshop reports from ongoing projects, and in review essays.

The OeZG appears three times a year, mostly in theme issues, occasionally also in open issues.

Its strength lies in the connection of theoretically and methodically innovative approaches with relevant historical debates and topics.
