Contemporary History as Multimedia and High-Tech History - Thoughts on Its Implementation in Austrian Universities
Abstract
Since the 1970's the field of history is characterised by an increasing dialogue with other
disciplines. Computer applications and quantification, oral history and qualitative research
strategies, historical imagology and semiotic analysis formed a bundle of new approaches
and methodologies. The current techno-cultural Revolution of digital representation of
knowledge will, as the authors suggest, result in another re-orientation of historical
methodology. The article discusses the requirements and advantages of Internet and
Multimedia and its use in scientific communication, teaching and practical training,
publication strategies and public relations work within the framework of institutionalised
historical research.
