Voices of the 20th Century Archive and Research Group
The organisation operates within the Institute of Sociology, Centre for Social Sciences, Hungarian Academy of Sciences. Its aim is to preserve and study the memory and the documents of the Hungarian sociological heritage. It collects, digitizes and publishes copies of interviews, documents etc. donated by researchers. Archiving is done in cooperation with the Open Society Archives (OSA), where the digital and hard copies are held. In accordance with an agreement reached with the research heads, we share the materials with the social scientific public. The digital Archive can be reached here: voices.osaarchivum.org. The aims of the Research Group are the following:
- basic research about the “sounding” heritage of the Hungarian sociological heritage.
- research on and documentation of the history of Hungarian sociological research based on qualitative methods.
- the initiation of historical sociological research projects based on the collected interviews.
- reflections and disciplinary self-reflection on the methodological and epistemological challenges of interview sources.
- case studies.
- reuse and publication of interviews and qualitative sources.
- enabling networking between researchers and research groups which use qualitative methods, and bringing them in touch with high schools and universities.
