A prestige paper for politics and culture. The Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung from its foundation to the present

这个项目调查了FAZ的历史，作为西德文化和社会历史的一部分。其次，分析了该报在西德和国外为政治、文化、科学、人文和经济提供公共知识和导向方面的作用。项目《S第一组问题》涉及的是报纸S的策略，以建立和维护独立的组织身份，尽管独立的核心新闻价值仍然受到持续的威胁。它将调查哪些问题构成了报纸的组织身份，这种身份是如何随着时间的推移积极保持和改变的，以及它是如何被感知的。此外，该项目还分析了政治化的过程以及多元化在文件中的发展程度。第二组问题植根于系统论。这些问题集中在报纸作为政治、文化和科学人文系统的媒体系统的一部分所提供的服务。FAZ是如何激怒这些系统的，它又是如何被它们激怒的？该项目将严格随机选择的社会科学方法与媒体历史的既定方法结合起来，重点关注相关事件、行为者和进程。资料来源主要基于FAZ很少使用的数字档案馆。其他来源包括FAZ出版商会议的协议、记者和知识分子的个人论文，以及其他报纸和期刊等媒体竞争对手的报道。总而言之，来源语料库的广度和深度都很好。子项目将遵循《S纪事报》(部门结构)。在政治方面，以冷战、非殖民主义进程和西方政治文化交流为背景，分析了《世界报》的历史。其次，在西德S基本自由化和西方化的背景下，包括政治两极分化的媒体部门，考察了该部门的历史。该分项目将展示报纸S对这些基本趋势和这些趋势的调解的具体贡献，以确定FAZ S特定身份的范围和独立性的限制，并从媒体史的角度评估这些历史基本趋势。Feuilleton被视为FAZ内一个充满活力的部门，宣布发起重要辩论，制定辩论框架，并果断地塑造辩论结果。其次，《非列顿报》的子项目侧重于报纸S在公共历史方面的角色，即公众对历史的引用和利用。然后，将把所有分项目的结果与进一步的研究结合起来，以提供综合的基础，即FAZ的全面历史，该历史将被纳入地区、西德和跨国历史。

This project investigates the history of the FAZ as part of the history of West German culture and society. Secondly, it analyzes the role of this newspaper in West Germany and abroad in providing public knowledge and orientation for politics, culture, science, humanities and the economy. The project s first set of questions is concerned with the newspaper s strategies to establish and maintain an organizational identity of independence, even though the central journalistic value of independence remained under constant threat. It will be investigated which issues composed the newspapers organizational identity, how this identity was actively sustained and changed over time and how it was perceived. Furthermore, the project analyzes processes of politicization and to what extent pluralism evolved within the paper. A second set of questions is rooted in systems theory. These questions focus on services of the paper as part of the media system for the systems of politics, culture and science and humanities. How did the FAZ irritate these systems and how it was irritated by them? The project combines the social-scientific method of strictly randomized selection with the established methodology of media history with a focus on relevant events, actors and processes. The corpus of sources is mainly based on the rarely used digital archive of the FAZ. Other sources are the protocols of the FAZ publisher conferences, personal papers of journalists and intellectuals, and the reporting of media competitors like other newspapers and journals. In sum, the breadth and depth of the corpus of sources are excellent. The sub-projects will follow the newspaper s Ressorteinteilung (departmental structure). As regards the political department, the history of the Weltblatt is analyzed against the back-drop of the Cold War, the process of de-colonialization and the political-cultural exchange in the West. Secondly, the history of this department is examined in the context of West Germany s fundamental liberalization and westernization, including a politically polarized media sector. The sub-project will evince the newspaper s specific contribution to these basic trends and to the mediatization of these trends in order to determine the scope of and limitations to the independence of the FAZ s specific identity and to assess these historical basic trends from a media history perspective The Feuilleton is seen as a vibrant department within the FAZ that proclaims to initiate important debates, to frame them and to shape their outcome decisively. Secondly, the sub-project on the Feuilleton focuses on the newspaper s role in terms of Public History, that is the public reference to and utilization of history. The results of all sub-projects will then be combined with further research to provide the basis for a synthesis, that is for a comprehensive history of the FAZ, which is to be embedded in regional, West German and transnational history.
