Zusammenfassung
In this chapter we trace cliometric research on German history. Our narrative is based on a newly constructed database of every publication which (1) is “cliometric” as per our definition and which (2) contributes to the historiography of Germany. In Section 1 we briefly discuss our selection criteria for the database. Section 2 gives a descriptive overview of the database and thereby offers a first, general take on trends in cliometric research on Germany since its beginnings in the early 1950s. In Section 3 we discuss selected topics which found the interest of historians, economists, and scholars of related fields working cliometrically on German history.
