The historical science studies gained their modern form during the long twentieth century. The aim of this workshop is to explore the history of this field of study. The term „modern historical science studies“ should be understood as a heuristic concept, which indicates a difference from more traditional forms of history of science. The reason behind the choice of this concept is that modern historical science studies are characterized by an interdisciplinary approach to the historical objects of the sciences, whereas more traditional history of science was mainly written as an experience-based reflection by representatives of the respective scientific disciplines themselves. For example, only from the late nineteenth and especially the twentieth century, social science approaches have played an increasingly important role in the historical reflection on the sciences. The contributions to the workshop focus on practices, the circulation processes of concepts, and individual representatives of different approaches to the history of science. Hereby, also the humanities are taken into account. Furthermore, a purely ‘western’ focus will be avoided, and the historical science studies in Eastern Europe will be equally taken into account.
