Description

Monika Krause examines how scholars in the social sciences and humanities select specific research objects that shape their understanding of broader concepts. From the French Revolution to studies of doctors, certain cases have had a profound impact on our ideas.

The author argues that these model cases can be useful for scholarly communities if they are acknowledged and reflected as particular objects, highlighting the importance of research strategies based on neglected research objects and combinations of research objects and scholarly concerns.
