Social Science History Association was formed in 1972 and brings together scholars from numerous disciplines interested in social history.[1] The Social Science History Association's core purpose is: "To bring together members of various disciplines (including economics, sociology, demography, anthropology, and history) who work with historical materials."[2]
The association's official journal is Social Science History, a quarterly peer-reviewed academic publication. Its essays handle historical evidence analytically, theoretically, and frequently quantitatively.[3] The journal's founders intended to "improve the quality of historical explanation" with "theories and methods from the social science disciplines", and to make generalizations across historical cases.[4] The first issue came out in the fall of 1976.[4][5] The journal's articles that are most-accessed and cited through JSTOR are about social and political movements and associated narratives.[6][7]
